Question

identify the slope of a line that would be perpendicular to the given line.
1. 3x-y=8
2. y+2=5(x-6)

Answer 1

They want you to turn the equations into slope intercept turn which is y = mx + b

Answer 2

yea

Answer 3

Product of slopes of 2 perpendicular lines is always -1

Answer 4

uh

Answer 5

if the lines are perpendicular it means that when you multiply the slopes of the lines the result is -1. so slope(1) * slope(2) = -1
for a) the slope is 3. so the perpendicular slope would be -1/3
b) slope is 5. perpendicular slope is: (5)(slope2) = -1 and solve for slope2

Answer 6

uh?????????????????????????????

Answer 7

can u help me @midhun.madhu1987

Answer 8

Step 1: write the above equation in the form y = mx + c where m = slope and c = y intercept
