Determine the slope
Since the equation is already given in slope-intercept form, we'd assume that the slope is the coefficient of x.
2 is the slope
To write the equation in perpendicular form, change the slope to opposite-reciprocal.
2 opposite-reciprocal is -1/2
So, the equation would be y= -1/2x - 3
Answer:
y= -1/2x - 3
