Which equation represents a line that is perpendicular to the line represented by 4x - 2y = 7 ?

Question

1. 2x + y = 4

2. -4y + 2x = 3

3. -6y = 3x - 24

4. x + y = -1

Answer 1

Hi  Natalia R

3. -6y = 3x - 24

Put 4x - 2y = 7

In Slope Intercept Form by solving for y

The Slope will be the coefficient of x

The Slope of the Perpendicular Line will be the opposite inverse of the coefficient of x
