The equation of line QR is y = negative 1 over 2x + 1. Write an equation of a line perpendicular to line QR in slope-intercept form that contains point (5, 6)

Question

campbell_st · Answer

so the line is 

$$y = \frac{-1}{2}x + 1$$

what's the slope of your line...?

anonymous · Answer

idk the slope it didnt say it

campbell_st · Answer

ok.... the the slope intercept form is 

y = mx + b

m = slope and b = y-intercept... 

using the line you posted in the equation, what value do you think the slope has?
