Answer:

y=2x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

To find an equation perpendicular to another one, you must find the negative inverse of the slope.

In this case, -1/2 has an inverse of -2, but because we're finding the negative inverse, the two negatives cancel out and we get 2, the slope of our perpendicular equation, which crosses the initial equation, making a right angle.

Please simplify with a explanation!~
PilotLPTM [1.2K]

Answer:

-4y + 20

Step-by-step explanation:

4(-y+5)

What we need to do here is get rid of the parentheses, which can be achieved through multiplication.

This is another way of saying 4 times -y plus 4 times 5.

Let's break the the parentheses down into 2 separate formulas.

4(-y) and 4(5)

Now we can multiply these two together to get -4y and +20. When combined, we get -4y +20.
