How do you write a slope-intercept equation for a line perpendicular to y=2x-4 that contains the point (-6, 2)?
1 Answer
See a solution process below:
Explanation:
The equation in the problem is in slope-intercept form. The slope-intercept form of a linear equation is:
Where
For:
We can substitute this into the formula to give:
Into this we can substitute the values of the points in the problem for
We can now substitute the slope and the value for
