Question

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line with equation y = 6x + 2?

A. -1/6


B.
–6

C.
6

D.
2

Answer 1

to find perpendicular slopes you flip the number upside down and give it the opposite sign like 5 would become -1/5 or -9 would become 1/9

Answer 2

so it would be A ?

Answer 3

y=6x+2
m=6 and b=2
when lines are perpendicular then we use this equation
m1m2=-1
m1(6)=-1
m1=-1\6
m=-1\6
A is the correct answer

Answer 4

yes
