Question

Write an equation for the line perpendicular to y=2x-5 that contains (-9,6).

A.y=2x+24
B.x=2y=24
C.y=-1/2x+6
D.y=-1/2=3/2

*You find the slope by using Y=mx+b
then, with the slope you do y-y1=m(x-x1)

Answer 1

If y=mx+b and the line perpendicular has slope n, then n=-1/m. So the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/2.

Answer 2

i got that, heeeeeelp me with the second part of the equationn
