Answer: -3/4, from y = -3/4 x + 3
Step-by-step explanation: The answer is based on the y=mx+b format, 3 being b. You find b on the (0,—), the center y axis. You know it’s negative because as it moves towards the larger numbers on the x axis, the slope is decreasing. Then you connect how many times the slope goes down and over as a whole number. It goes down 3 times and over 4 times. This helps you identify the slope and the function.

The graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option (B) is correct.
<h3>What is the slope?</h3>The ratio that y increase as x increases is the slope of a line. The slope of a line reflects how steep it is, but how much y increases as x increases. Anywhere on the line, the slope stays unchanged (the same).

The complete question is:
Consider the equation y = 4x - 2 Which graph shows a line that is perpendicular to the line defined by the given equation?
Please refer to the attached picture.
The given line:
y = 4x - 2
The slope of the line m = 4
The slope of the line which is perpendicular to the above line:
M = -1/4 = -0.25
The graph second has a slope of -0.25
y - 2 = -0.25x - 1
y = -0.25x + 1
Thus, the graph second represents the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 2 option (B) is correct.
