Question

what is the slope of a line perpendicular to rhe line whose equation is y=2x+5?

Answer 1

the slope of
\[\huge y=\color{red}mx+b\] is \(\large \color{red}m\)
the slope of the perpendicular line is
\[\huge -\frac{1}{\color{red}m}\]

Answer 2

-1/2

Answer 3

jIs the data set “names of the players on the golf team” quantitative or qualitative? If it is quantitative, is it discrete or continuous?

Answer 4

m1*m2=-1
m1= slope of 1st line
m2=slope of the line perpendicular to the 1st line.
here eqn is 2x-y+5=0
so m1= 2
therefore m2= -1/2
hope it will help you.
