Answer:

-5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use slope intercept form: \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

\frac{-2-8}{20-8} = \frac{-10}{12} = -5/6

Elza [17]

Answer:

y = 2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

x + 2y = 2

The slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

First find the slope of the line

2y = -x+2

Divide by 2

y = -1/2x +1

The slope of this line is -1/2

We want a line that is perpendicular, which is the negative reciprocal

-1 /(-1/2) = 2

The slope intercept form is

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

y = 2x+b

Substitute the point into the line

6 = 2(5)+b

6 = 10+b

6-10 =b

-4=b

y = 2x-4
