Question

The equation of a line is shown below:

y = fraction reading 1/5x - 9

What is the equation of a line which is perpendicular to this line and passes through
(1, 58)?
y = 5x - 63
y = -5x + 63
y = 9x - 63
y = 9x + 63 @freckles

Answer 1

@nincompoop

Answer 2

y=1/5*x-9
what is the slope of this line?

Answer 3

um can i have a hiny

Answer 4

hint

Answer 5

y=mx+b
has slope m and y-intercept b
what I'm asking for is m in this case
since I'm looking for slope

Answer 6

what is the number in front of x in
y=1/5* x-9

Answer 7
