Write an equation of a line perpendicular to y = x + 4 in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (-2, 6).
y= x - 4
y= x + 6
y= -4x - 2
y= -4x +

y = -x
OpenStudy (vivek3461):
Line in slope intercept form is y = mx + c, where 'm' is slope and c is ' Y intercept.
condition for perpendicular lines are m1.m2 = -1 where m1, m2 are the slope of perpendicular line.
find the slope using above condition and substitute the given point to find the y intercept.

@TrojanPoem How abt u?
OpenStudy (trojanpoem):
Something is wrong with me i got - before the y
OpenStudy (agl202):
So, is it a, b, c, or d???

Its C.
OpenStudy (trojanpoem):
Retype the choices
OpenStudy (agl202):
y= 1/4x - 4
y= 1/4x + 6
y= -4x - 2
y= -4x + 1/4
OpenStudy (vivek3461):
Choices seem to be all wrong
OpenStudy (trojanpoem):
Yeah

Are these the choices?
A) \[y=\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }x-4\]
B)\[y=\frac{ 1 }{ 4 }x+6\]
C) y= -4x - 2
D) y= -4x + 1/4
OpenStudy (agl202):
Ya...:)
OpenStudy (vivek3461):
None of the slope of the lines given in the choices satisfies the perpendicularity condition
OpenStudy (agl202):
Soooooooo.......
OpenStudy (trojanpoem):
Recheck the question.

wait what are you looking for?

He is looking for the equation of the line which is prep to the one given.
