Question

Write the equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 2x + 2 and passes through the point (6, 3).

Answer 1

perpendicular means inverse opposite slope

Answer 2

So, y = -1/2x + -2?

Answer 3

Oops I meant y = -1/2x -2

Answer 4

no you need to use the points 6,3

Answer 5

y-3=-1/2(x-6)

Answer 6

I think I get it.

Answer 7

What would the equation look like out of these?

y = 2x + 6

y = -one halfx + 3

y = -one halfx + 6

y = 2x + 3

Answer 8

you could just plug in the values and solve for b.
y = -1/2x + b
3 = -1/2(6)+ b
3 = -3 + b
6 = b

Answer 9

OOOHH So, then It'd be the third answer?

Answer 10

yes
