Question

Help please! Identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to Y =-1/2x+11that passes through (4,-8)

Answer 1

y=2x+8

Explanation:

You set the slope to the opposite of -1/2 which is 2/1 or 2.

Then you do b=2(4) (because 4 is the x in the coordinate points)

and solve for b you get 8 so

Y=2x+8
