The equation for slope is:
(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

-2 -(-7) = 5
-9 -(-1) = -8

Slope of the line:

5/-8 or -5/8

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to get the slope of the perpendicular line

The slope of a perpendicular line is equal to the negative inverse of the slope of the given line

y

=

m

x

+

⇒

Now that we have the slope, we need to find the y-intercept.

To find the y-intercept, we need to plug-in values of  

x

and  

y

that the line passes through
