Question

Perpendicular to y = 2x – 6 and passing through (4,3)

Answer 1

Answer:

y = - 1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2x – 6        slope = 2

Perpendicular line slope = -1/2

for (4 , 3)      y = mx + b       y = 3, x = 4,   m = -1/2

b = y - mx = 3 - (-1/2) x 4 = 5

equation: y = - 1/2x + 5
