Question

Find the linear function satisfying the given conditions.
g(2) = 9 and the graph of g is perpendicular to the line 4x − 2y = 3.
g(x) =

Answer 1

the line 4x − 2y = 3
has slope = 2

so, you want a line with slope = -1/2. Now you have a point (2,9) and a slope (-1/2), so your line is

g-9 = -1/2 (x-2)
