Answer:

  2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve for y to find the slope of the given line.

  x +2y = 2

  2y = -x +2 . . . . . subtract x

  y = -1/2x +1 . . . . divide by the coefficient of y

The slope is the x-coefficient, -1/2.

Any perpendicular line will have a slope that is the opposite reciprocal of this:

  -1/(-1/2) = 2

A perpendicular line will have a slope of 2.
