Answer:

y=(-3/2)x+24

Step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line should have the negative reciprocal of the line that it is perpendicular to.

negative reciprocal of 2/3 is -3/2

out line should look something like this

y=(-3/2)x+b

then we use the given point to find b

6=(-3/2)12+b

6=-18+b

b=24
