Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we're dealing with perpendicular lines, we take the recipricol of the m value of the original equation.
So the slope we're dealing with is 1/2.
And the equation we have so far is
y = 1/2x + b
Now we solve for b by plugging in the point (4,2).
2 = 1/2(4) + b
2 = 2 + b
b = 0
So the final equation is
y = 1/2x
