Question 332223: Please solve the equation in slope intercept form:
the line through (0,5) that is perpendicular to y=-2x. Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! y=-2x
so slope = -2
..
the line perpendicular to this line will have slope of 1/2 ( negative reciprocal)
..
this line passes through (0,5)
y= mx+b
5=0+b
b= 5 the intercept.
..
y=(1/2)x+5 is the required line (red)
..
