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

1 answer:

3 0

<h3>Slopes of perpendicular lines.</h3>

Let k: y = a₁x + b₁ and l: y = a₂x + b₂. Then

We have the line y = -x + 5 ⇒ a₁ = -1.

Therefore

a₂ · (-1) = -1

-a₂ = -1 I<em>change the signs</em>

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If two lines are parallel, that means their slopes are equal.

And we also know that the line must pass through (-6,7)

And with our point-slope equation, we get the equation:

$y-7 = -\frac{5}{2} (x+6)$

$y - 7 = -\frac{5}{2} x-15\\y= -\frac{5}{2} x-8$ <------ Answer
