Find the y-intercept.
\The y-intercept is the value of y, when x = 0.
\ (Substitute x  = 0 in original equation)
                  (Substitute x  = 0 in original equation)
 (Apply Zero propduct property:

The y-intercept is 2, so the graph intersects the y-axis at (0, 2).
First find the slope of the line  .
.
Rewrite the line in slope-intercept form y = mx + b, where m is slope and b is y-intercept.
\Apply subtraction property of equality: if a = b, then .
.
 (Subtract 2x from each side)

Compare the equation with slope-intercept form and find the slope of the line.
\ = 
If two lines are perpendicular, the slope (m1) of one line is opposite reciprocal of the second line slope (m2). It can be represented as,  .
.
Slope of the line perpendicular to given line is 
So, slope of the new line =  .
.
Graph the line using given point and slope.
\1. Draw a coordinate plane.
\2. Plot the given point (0, 2).
\3.   Find the next point using  . Start at (0, 2) and go up 5 units and 2 units right, then mark a dot and label it.
. Start at (0, 2) and go up 5 units and 2 units right, then mark a dot and label it.
4. Draw a line through these points.
