Question

Help needed pleaseee

Answer 1

A

Explanation:

Since we're dealing with perpendicular lines, we take the recipricol of the m value of the original equation.

So the slope we're dealing with is 1/2.

And the equation we have so far is

y = 1/2x + b

Now we solve for b by plugging in the point (4,2).

2 = 1/2(4) + b

2 = 2 + b

b = 0

So the final equation is

y = 1/2x
