If you meant to write y=23x-4 then none of the lines are perpendicular.

I suspect you intended y=2/3x-4, then line D, y=-3/2x-4 is perpendicular.

For any line y=mx+b, you have to "invert" m to get  a perpendicular line. Inverting in this case means: flip numerator and denominator and add a minus sign.

So 2/3 becomes -3/2, hence answer D.

The 'inverted' m is called the opposite reciprocal. That's your word of the day.
