If the line has a slope of 2, then the perpendicular line has a slope of -1/2. The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal. Another example would be if the slope of a line is -1/4, then the slope of the perpendicular is 4.
Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains the point (1, 1).
