Question

find the equation of thw line through the point (-2,-2) that is perpendicular to the line y = 2x - 1

Answer 1

y=x/2-1

Answer 2

since it's prependicular to the line y=2x-1
therfore m1*m2=-1 where m is the slope . therfore m2 = -1/2
the equation may be writen as (y-y1)/(x-x1)=m
in other words (y+2)/(x+2)=-1/2
y=-1/2x-1

Answer 3

sorry it will be (-x/2) -3
