You can put this solution on YOUR website! 2x+y=4
The answer is D. The slope of this equation is -2 and if it is perpendicular it is the exact opposite of the equation. making the answer 2.

Being perpendicular, the slope will be the negative reciprocal of the line whose equation is 2x + y = 4.
Since the slope of the line whose equation is 2x + y = 4, is - 2, then the correct answer is (CHOICE C)
