A welder is welding a part of a structures base that needs to be perpendicular to each other. The legs are laid out using this equation 3(4x + 2) = 2y − 4. While the base is laid out using this equation 6(y + 5) + 3 = -x + 3.  Are the legs perpendicular to the base yes or no? Explain your answer and provide your work to support your answer.
