How do you find the slope perpendicular to #y=2x-3#?
the product of the slope of the normal and the slope of the line
must be = -1 is they are perpendicular to one another
where m is the slope so the slope for this line is 2

To find the slope perpendicular to a given line, first identify the slope of the given line. In this case, the given line ( y = 2x - 3 ) has a slope of 2.
To find the slope perpendicular to this line, use the fact that perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals of each other. So, the slope perpendicular to a line with slope 2 would be ( -\frac{1}{2} ). Therefore, the slope perpendicular to ( y = 2x - 3 ) is ( -\frac{1}{2} ).

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
