Question

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to y=2x

Answer 1

The slope would be -1/2

Answer 2

Answer:

$-\frac{1}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a perpendicular line just calculate the anti-reciprocal of 2

Slope of the perpendicular line: $-\frac{1}{2}$

The equation would be:

$y=-\frac{1}{2} x$
