Question

Consider the line .

What is the slope of a line parallel to this line?

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Answer 1

whats the line?

Answer 2

x-3y=7

Answer 3

parallel slope=1/3

Answer 4

perpendicular slope= -3

Answer 5

thank you so much how do you do it ( a basic summary is fine)

Answer 6

okay..

Answer 7

u return it to form y=mx+b where m is the slope, y=1/3x-7/3

parallel slope=same slope so on here u have 1/3

perpendicular slope= opposite reciprocal of the slope u have the reciprocal of 1/3 is 3 and the opposite of 3 is -3
