Question

write an equation of the line that intersects the y-axis at (0,1), and is perpendicular to the line whos equation is x+2y=6

Answer 1

x+ 2y = 6

FInd it's slope.

THen find the slope of the line perpendicular to it using,
\[m_1 \times m_2 = -1\]
FInally use the point given and the slope to find the equation

Answer 2

slope would be 2 for the first one right

Answer 3

-1/2

Answer 4

-1/2*m=-1
m=2

Answer 5

Nope, solve for y.
x+ 2y = 6
2y = -x + 6
y = -1/2 x + 3

So slope = -1/2

Now find the slope of the line perp to it using the formula given above.

Answer 6

y=2x-1?

Answer 7

Perfect.

Answer 8

thanks bro.
