Answer:

1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+y =4

Lets solve for y so the equation is in slope intercept form

Subtract 2x from each side

2x-2x+y = -2x+4

y = -2x+4

The slope is-2

When we want a perpendicular line, the slope is the negative reciprocal

-(1/-2)

+ 1/2

The slope of the new line is 1/2
