Question

A Mater Exam

Answer 1

Answer:

The slope of the perpendicular line to the line is

m   = $\frac{-1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step(i):-

Given that the line y =f(x) = 2x +6

                           ⇒  y = 2x +6

 comparing             y =mx +c

The slope of the given line   m =2

Step(ii):-

The slope of the perpendicular line   = $\frac{-1}{m}$

The slope of the perpendicular line   = $\frac{-1}{2}$
