Question

In the xy-plane, The line P is perpendicular to the graph of the equation 4x+3y=12. Which of the following is the slope of line P? A. -4 B.-3 C. 3/4 D.12

Answer 1

A slope is also known as the gradient of a line. The slope of line P is 3/4.

What is Slope?

A slope also known as the gradient of a line is a number that helps to know both the direction and the steepness of the line.

As it is known that for two perpendicular lines the slope of the lines will be negative reciprocal of each other. The slope of line 4x+3y=12 can be written as,

y = 4 - (4/3)x

m₁ = -1/m₂

-(4/3) = -1/m₂

m₂ = 3/4

Hence, the slope of line P is 3/4.
