Question

What is the slope of the line that is perpendicular to y = -5x + 13 ?

Answer 1

well use y=mx+b, and remember that parallel lines have the same slope. so what is the slope? :)

Answer 2

@860bu2y are you still here?

Answer 3

is it 1/5?

Answer 4

two lines are perpendicular if the product of their slopes =-1

Answer 5

oh darn misread the question XD

Answer 6

using y=mx+c , m=-5

Answer 7

let m2 be the slope of our line...then m*m2 =-1
-5*m2=-1
m2 =1/5

Answer 8

so the answer is 1/5
