Question

can anyone help me please i would really apreciate that

Answer 1

What is the slope of the line passing through the point (4, −2) and perpendicular to the line y = 4x + 2? Write your answer as a fraction.

Answer 2

@Compassionate

Answer 3

-1/4

Answer 4

thank you so much can you also show your work so whenever i have something similar i know how to solve?

Answer 5

\[\LARGE y=mx+c\]
m is the slope
Compare with your given equation..
y = 4x + 2
m=4
For perpendicular line just do this..
Reciprocal your "m" and change the sign
You may also add to your knowledge that,
For perpendicular lines,
\[\LARGE m_1 \times m_2=-1\]
so if m2 here is ur perpendicular slope,which is -1/m1 hence proved right?
