Question

What is the equation of the line passing through (0, 2) and perpendicular to the line y = 4x – 3 in slope-intercept form?

Answer 1

im learning this right now too so i will tell you as much as i know

Answer 2

but the slope would be opposite of 4 because its perpendicular so the slope for your new equation is going to be -1/4

Answer 3

your new equation is y-2=-1/4(x-0) which when solved is y=-1/4x+2

Answer 4

does that help?

Answer 5

yeah, thanks.

Answer 6

m=-1/4 is the gradient of the new line so just use y-y1=m(x-x1)
so y-2=-1/4(x-0)

Answer 7

yeah and -1/4(0)=0

Answer 8

so then you add 2 to both sides and get y=-1/4+2

Answer 9

ohh yeh oops

Answer 10

thats it
