How do I write this equation in slope- Intercept form?

Answer:
y = 3/8x + 43/8
Step-by-step explanation:
first multiply 3/8 with the parentesis
y - 2 = 3/8 x + 27/8
y = 3/8x +27/8 + 2
y = 3/8x +43/8
*The equation of the line that is perpendicular should have a slope of -8/3, so the answer should be:
y - 2 = -8/3(x - -9)
y - 2 = -8/3x -24
y = -8/3x -24 + 2
y = -8/3x -22
