Answer:

Explanation:

First, find the slope of the given line by finding two points. (0, 3) and (1, 1)

Use the equation for slope rise/run to find the slope.

From the left point to the right point, it goes down 2 units and to the right by 1 unit

-2/1 = -2 = slope

We already know the y-intercept which is y = 3, when x=0 and when the line crosses the y-axis

y=-2x+3 is the equation of the line.

Perpendicular line's slope is the opposite reciprocal of the original line's slope. Opposite reciprocal of -2 would be 1/2

y = 1/2(x)

y=1/2x -5/2
