Answer:

Graph attached.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Line (i) contains  point (0, -3)
  • It's perpendicular to line (ii) whose slope is 2

The product of slope of line (i) and slope of line (ii) should be equal to -1 (product of slopes of two perpendicular lines = -1)

i.e

Slope of line (i) × 2 = -1

Slope of line (i) = [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

To find the equation of line (i), we need another point (x,y) on the line.

Slope (m) = change in y ÷ change in x = [tex]\frac{y - -3}{x - 0} = -\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

y = [tex]-\frac{1}{2} x[/tex] - 3
