Which equation represents a line which is perpendicular to the line y=-2x-3y=−2x−3?

y=1/2x

y=−2x−3y=-2x-3

Choose a point that the perpendicular line will pass through.

(0,0)

Use the slope-intercept form to find the slope.

m=−2

The equation of a perpendicular line must have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.

mperpendicular=−1−2

Simplify −1−2 to find the slope of the perpendicular line.

mperpendicular=1/2

Find the equation of the perpendicular line using the point-slope formula.

y+0=12⋅(x+0)

Write in y=mx+b.

y=1/2x
