2 is the slope so the slope perpendicular to that is -1/2 (negative reciprocal)
-5=-1/2(9) 9*-1/2=-4.5 and -4.5 - 0.5 = -5 so the equation for the line is y=-1/2x -0.5
No, the expressions –0.5(3x 5) and –1.5x 2.5 are not equivalent.
Using the distributive property to expand the first expression, you would get -1.5x - 2.5. Since the constant term does not have the same sign as the second expression, the two expressions are not equivalent.
Also, if you substitute in a value for x and evaluate each expression, the values will not be equal.
