Question

HEY CAN ANYONE PLS ANSWER DIS MATH PROBLEM!!!!

Answer 1

Answer: y = (-1/2)x + 8.5

Explanation:

A line perpendicular would have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the given equation.

In this case, the slope is 2, so the perpendicular equation's slope would be -1/2.

We plug in (1, 8) to find b, or the y intercept.

8 = (-1/2)(1) + b

b = 8.5

So the equation would be:

y = (-1/2)x + 8.5

Answer 2

`y=-(x)/(2)+(17)/(2)`
