    Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other, that is, if one slope is a/b, the other slope is - b/a

    the given line 3x-4y=24, 4y=3x-24, y=3/4x-6 has a slope of 3/4, so the slope of the perpendicular line has a slope of - 4/3

    y = (-4/3) x+b, b can be any number.
