Which of the following equations represents a line perpendicular to y = –2x + 4? A. 2x + y = 3 B. –x + 2y = 1 C. 2x + y = 4 D. x + 2y = –4

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Is B the correct answer?

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

Correct !

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

slope of given line = -2 lets say, slope of perp line = m m*-2 = -1 m = 1/2

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

oly B has a slope of 1/2, so thats ur answer

ganeshie8 (ganeshie8):

uve done the same way or used a different method ?
