If a line contains the x-intercept
25
and the y-intercept
−5,
find the slope m of any perpendicular line.

Answer 1

u have two point,

(25,0) and (0, -5)

now use the slope formula to solve. =)

Answer 2

5/25?

Answer 3

Right, now solve it..

u will get 1/5

Answer 4

For the slope of perpendicular, use the formula,
\[m_1 \times m_2 = -1\]

Answer 5

1/5, final answer?

Answer 6

Yes, it's the final answer for original line.

Answer 7

-1/5?

Answer 8
