Question

Write an equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point
2x+4y=-6;(2,5)
A.)y=(1/2x)-8
B.)y=(1/2x)+1
C.)y=2x+1
D.)y=-2x+1

Answer 1

put the equation into slope-intercept form... get the m from it. then use the formula
y−y1=m(x−x1)
and solve and then put it into slope form

Answer 2

i did but i got c..@aykayyy

Answer 3

dont forget to take your m and do the opposite reciprocal... you do this because the lines are not parallel but perpendicular
