Question

help pleasee!

Find the equation of the line through the point (–2, –2) that is perpendicular to the line y = 2x – 1

Answer 1

SLope will be -1/2 and all u have to do is to apply formula y – y1 = m(x – x1)

Answer 2

how you apply the formula??

Answer 3

wait no, sorry
perpendicular= reciprocal + flip sign
y= -1/2x + b
-2 = -1/2(-2) + b
-2 =1 + b
-3 = b
y = -1/2x -3

Answer 4

@dalia_lam u r right but the authentic way to do this is to apply point slppe form formula
