Answer:

The perpendicular line would be y = -2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

First we must solve the original equation for y.

x - 2y = 7

-2y = -x + 7

y = 1/2x - 7/2

In order to find the equation of this line, we first have to note that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. Therefore, since the original line has a slope of 1/2, we know the new line will have a slope of -2. Now we can use that information along with the given point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 2 = -2(x + 3)

y - 2 = -2x - 6

y = -2x - 4

Answer:

(-4, 0) and (5/2, 0)

Step-by-step explanation:

if you graph the equation you can see where the curve intersects the x-axis or you can factor the equation into:  (2x - 5)(x + 4) = 0

set each factor equal to zero and solve:

2x - 5 = 0

2x = 5

x = 5/2

x + 4 = 0

x = -4
