Answer:

perpendicular slope = -
(1)/(2)

Explanation:

Calculate the slope m of the line using the slope formula

m =
(y_(2)-y_(1) )/(x_(2)-x_(1) )

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (0, 1) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 2, - 3) ← 2 points on the line

m =
(-3-1)/(-2-0) =
(-4)/(-2) = 2

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is


m_(perpendicular) = -
(1)/(m) = -
(1)/(2)
