Question

Find the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line containing the points (–2 –1) and (2 –3).

A. M= -2
B. M= 2
C. M= -1/2
D. M= -1

Answer 1

(–2 –1) and (2 –3) use the slope formula to find the slope between these two points

Answer 2

slope would be 1/2

Answer 3

What is the slope formula?

Answer 4

WHY DO YOU JUST GIVE THE ANSWER

Answer 5

\[\huge m = \frac{ y_{2}-y _{1} }{ x _{2}-x _{1} }\]

Answer 6

oh thanks @iambatman

Answer 7

Where m represents the slope.

Answer 8

because if you use the slope intercept form you would get -4/4 then you would simplify that would give you -1 then you take the opposite reciprical which is 1/2

Answer 9

^ that's not correct

Answer 10

lool

Answer 11

So -2 - -1= -1 correct?

Answer 12

Yes

Answer 13

im sorry i meant to put 2

Answer 14

2/1

Answer 15

and 2 - -3= 5 correct?

Answer 16

Wait why are you doing x-y?

Answer 17

im not
