What is perpendicular to the line 3x plus y equals 2?

If a line has equation y = mx + c, the perpendicular line has gradient -1/m A line perpendicular to 3x + y = 2 has equation 3y = x + c; the value for c will be determined by a point through which the line must pass.

Is 3x plus 2y equals 5 and 3x plus 2y equals 9 perpendicular or parallel?

We need to get both equations into slope-intercept form. If they are parallel, they will have the same slope. If they are perpendicular, they will have slopes that when multiplied equal -1. (unless one line is horizontal and the other vertical) 3x+2y=5 2y=5-3x y=(-3/2)x+(5/2) 3x+2y=9 2y=9-3x y=(-3/2)x+(9/2) The two lines are parallel, since both slopes are equal to (-3/2).
