Question

Write an equation is a line perpendicular to $y equals 2 x plus 5$ that passes through the point (2,3)

$y = 1 / 2 x + 2$
$y = - 1 / 2 x + 4$
$y = 2 x - 1$
$y = - 1 / 2 x + 2$

hint Hint:

Use the given point and the slope of the perpendicular line.

The correct answer is: $y equals negative 1 divided by 2 x plus 4$

y=2x+5 and point (2,3).
Use the given point and the slope of the perpendicular line.
$y minus y subscript 1 equals m open parentheses x minus x subscript 1 close parentheses$
$y equals negative 1 divided by 2 x plus 4$
