Answer:
[tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x+1[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Perpendicular => So, it will have a slope of a negative reciprocal to this slope
Slope = m = 1/2
Now,
Point = (x,y) = (0,1)
So, x = 0 and y = 1
Putting this in slope-intercept equation to get b
=> [tex]y = mx+b[/tex]
=> 1 = (1/2)(0) + b
=> b = 1
Now putting m and b in the slope intercept equation to get the required equation
=> [tex]y = \frac{1}{2} x+1[/tex]
