Question

Answers need to be fractions, if they are not whole numbers. No decimals

Answer 1

The Slope of lines parallel to line is 1/2 and the Slope of lines perpendicular  to line is -2.

What is the equation of a straight line ?

An equation that can be written in the form of y = mx+c

where m is the slope of the line

and c is the intercept on y axis

The equation given in the question is

y=1/2x−7

in this the slope = 1/2

Intercept = -7

For parallel Lines

For a parallel line , the slope of the line is same

and is given by  m = 1/2

For a perpendicular line

Slope will be equal to

-1/m

here -1/m = -2

Therefore the slope for perpendicular line is -2.
