Question 669706: Find k in the line containing (2,k) that is perpendicular to the line y=2x-3 that goes throught point (4,5)
Answer by ReadingBoosters(3246)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Starting with the line y = 2x-3
...
the slope is 2
...
the slope of the perpendicular line is
...
Using the coordinate (4, 5) and the determined slope, the linear equation is:

b = 5 + 2 = 7
...
y = x + 7
...
Given the coordinates (2, k)
