Screwball Jones, a mathematically-minded frog, tries to find the equation of the line containing the point (-6, -3) and perpendicular to 4y + 3x = 7 using the point-slope form.He solves the given line for:4y + 3x = 74y = -3x + 7y= -3/4 x + 7/4Screwball Jones substitutes in the following: y-6=-3/4 (x + 3) to find a final equation of y= -3/4 x + 15/4Describe any errors Screwball might have made, and then use the point-slope form to find the correct equation. Write your final equation in slope-intercept form.
