Question

Find the slope of every like that is perpendicular to the graph of the equation.

Answer 1

Answer:

-1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

y - 2x =0

Solve for y

y = 2x

This is in slope intercept

y = mx+b  where m is the slope

y = 2x

m=2

The slope of the line is 2

Lines that are perpendicular are the negative reciprocals

-1/m

-1/2

The lines that are perpendicular have slopes that are -1/2
