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

Answer 1

let me tell you a secret

Answer 2

that 2 next to the x is the slope

Answer 3

and perpendicular lines........ their slope is THE NEGATIVE RECIPRICOLE

Answer 4

the sole of this equation is the coefficient of x

Answer 5

the perpendicular slope of this line:
the formula for the perpenicular m1*m2=-1
so m1 you have it from the equation above just solve for m2

Answer 6

okay we can do it that way

Answer 7

2*x=-1 what is x?
