Ill Fan And Metal , i just need this real quick to finish! please <3
Choose the equation of the line passing through the point (-2, 4) and perpendicular to y = -negative one halfx + 4.
y = 2x + 8
y = 2x
y = -2x - 8
y = -2x

Courtney. We meet again.
Do you know what perpendicular means?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
not really ;-; lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
what is the slope of given line?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont know ;-;
OpenStudy (anonymous):
The slope of the perpendicular is the opposite recipricol of the original slope.

y=mx+c
OpenStudy (anonymous):
which means ;-; lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
here m is slope.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which means that if the slope for the original line is 2, then it is the opposite (add a negative sign) recipricol (flip the fraction)
So it would be -1/2
OpenStudy (anonymous):
kinda understanding

What would the opposite recipricol of -2/3 be then?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
4?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Where did 4 come from?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont know , i was hoping id get lucky.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
just being honest ;-; lol xD

to make me seem somewhat smart here xD
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no i look 2x as stupid...maybe even 4x xD
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Flip the fraction first.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
3/2

Yes. Now do the same thing for the slope in your problem.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
2/1 ?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Yes.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Do you remember what we did with point slope form in the last question?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
no ;-; lol

>.> then go look.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
I can't help you on the test, you're going to have to learn it eventually.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
ughh so much work ;-; imma just guess lol
OpenStudy (anonymous):
i dont careabout this once i pass this im done with this bs -.-
