y=23x+3

Explanation:

The slope of the line y=32x+11 is 32

Since our unknown line is perpendicular to y=32x+11, the slope of our unknown is 23 (which is the negative reciprocal of 32).

The unknown line passes through:
P1(3,5)

The equation of the line can be determined using:
(yy1)=m(xx1)

(y5)=23(x3)

Simplifying further,
y5=23x2

y=23x2+5

y=23x+3
