Question

Consider the line x+7y= -7.
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line? What is the slope of a line parallel to this line?

Answer 1

\[\large \bf ax+by+c=0\]
\[\large \bf m(Slope)=\frac{-a}{b}\]

Answer 2

from this hint,can you indentify slope of this line :-
\[\large \bf x+7y=-7\]

Answer 3

Answer 4

parallel: (slopes are the same) so it's -7
perpendicular: (slopes are recipricol) so it's 1/7
