Answer:

y = -2x - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Set the slope of the given equation to the reciprocal  to get a perpendicular slope:

y = 1/2x --> -2x

y = -2x + b will be your current equation. To get b, you must insert the given information: (-1, -3)

-3 = -2 (-1) + b

Solve:

-3 = 2 + b

<u>-2   -2      </u>

-5 = b

Thus your equation would be y = -2x - 5.
