Answer:

y = (2/3)x - 1,  slope-intercept form

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 2y = - 8

2y = -3x - 8

y = (-3/2) x - 4

Slope of this line is -3/2.

For the perpendicular line slope is 2/3.

Point - slope form is

(y - y1) = m(x - x1)

Point is (3,1). Slope m = 2/3.

y - 1 = (2/3)*(x - 3)

y - 1 = (2/3)x - 2

y = (2/3)x - 1,  slope-intercept form
