Answer 2

Answer:

Step 1) Find the slope of the given line, y = (1/2)x - 1.  Hint.  The given line is the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.

 

Step 2) The slope of the line perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

 

slope of perpendicular line = - 1/m

 

Step 3) Use the slope found in step 2 and the given point (1, 3) to write the equation of the line.  Use the point-slope form y - y0 = m(x - x0) where (x0, y0) is the given point.  Solve for y
