Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to 2x + 4y = 6 and passes through the point (6,4). A) y= 2x + 4
B) y= 2x - 8
C) y= -2x + 16
D) y= 1/2x + 4

I think B but if i got it wrong im sorry im not very good with algebra

Step-by-step explanation:

y = -2x + 16

Step-by-step explanation:

when two lines are perpendicular, their slopes, (m1)(m2)= -1

then the slope of the given line is 1/2.

(1/2)(m2)= -1 m2= -2

then the straight line formula, y-y1=m2(x-x1)

y-4= -2(x-6)

y = -2x + 16

x is variable or an unknown value to find

example:

2x = 5 which means x = 3

42.4

step-by-step explanation:

convert to decimal
