Question

A line has the following equation: y=\frac{6}{7}x+5y=

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm still not exactly sure what the question really is, but the level suggests that it is

y = (6/7)x + 5

Any line that is parallel to this line has a slope of 6/7

Any line that is perpendicular to this line is a little more complicated.

slope of given line * slope of perpendicular line = - 1

6/7 * perpendicular slope = - 1  

Multiply by 7

6*perpendicular slope = - 7

Divide by 6

perpendicular slope = - 7/6
