Question

What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (-2, 4) and is perpendicular to the line y = -2x + 4?

Answer 1

we know if we have slope m then a line perpendicular will have -1/m slope
so your slope will be 1/2
y=(1/2)x+b now use that point to find b
4=(1/2)(-2)+b
4=-1+b
b=5
so
y=(1/2)x+5

Answer 2

or maybe I gave you the completely wrong answer to make sure your paying attention...and not just trying to find answers:)

Answer 3

hopefully not because i have like 3 more questions and i have to submit this assignment before 12 i have 8 minutes!!!
