Answer: (2,2) is y = -2x + 6.
Step-by-step explanation: The given equation is y = (1/2)x + 1.
The slope of this line is 1/2, which is also the slope of any line perpendicular to it is -2 (negative reciprocal of 1/2).
Using the point-slope form of the equation of a line, the equation of the line passing through (2,2) with slope -2 is:
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
where m = -2, x1 = 2, y1 = 2
y - 2 = -2(x - 2)
y - 2 = -2x + 4
y = -2x + 6
Hence, the equation of the straight line which is perpendicular to y= 1/2x+1 and passes through the point (2,2) is y = -2x + 6.
