The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = 8x + 5 will be -1/8.

<h3>What is the slope of perpendicular lines?</h3>

Suppose that first straight line has slope 's'

Let another straight line be perpendicular to this first line.

Let its slope be 'a'

Then due to them being perpendicular, they have their slopes' multiplication as -1

or

s x a = -1

s = -1/ a

Slope of line y = 8x + 5

s = 8

The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y = 8x + 5

8 x a = -1

a = -1/8

Thus, the slope is -1/8.

What is the area, in square centimeters, of the trapezoid below?<br> 8.5 cm<br> 7.5 cm<br> 15.7 cm
Contact [7]

Answer:

90.75 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a trapezoid is given by

A = 1/2 ( b1+b2) *h

where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the bases and h is the height

A = 1/2(8.5+ 15.7) * 7.5

1/2 (24.2) 7.5

90.75 cm^2
