Question

PLZZZ HELPPP!!!!!!!!!!

Answer 1

Hello!

$\large\boxed{2x + y = 3}$

Begin by finding the slope that would be perpendicular to the given equation.

A perpendicular line has a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of the original. Therefore:

1/2 --> -2

Find the answer choice that contains a slope of -2 when rewritten in the form y = mx + b:

Choice 1:

x + 2y = 2

Move x to the other side:

2y = -x + 2

Divide both sides by 2:

y = -1/2x + 1. This choice is incorrect.

Choice 2:

x - 2y = -12

Move x to the other side:

-2y = -x - 12

Divide both sides by -2:

y = 1/2x + 6. This choice is incorrect.

Choice 3:

2x + y = 3

Move 2x to the other side:

y = -2x + 3. This contains a slope of -2, which is correct.

Choice 4:

y - 2x = -5

Move -2x to the opposite side:

y = 2x - 5. This contains a slope of positive 2, so it is incorrect.

The correct answer is 2x + y = 3.
