keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmmm what's the slope of the equation above anyway?
![\bf x+y=6\implies y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{-1}x+6\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cbf%20x%2By%3D6%5Cimplies%20y%20%3D%20%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cstackrel%7Bm%7D%7B%5Cdownarrow%20%7D%7D%7B-1%7Dx%2B6%5Cqquad%20%5Cimpliedby%20%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7B%7Cc%7Cll%7D%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20slope-intercept~form%5C%5C%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20%5C%5C%20y%3D%5Cunderset%7By-intercept%7D%7B%5Cstackrel%7Bslope%5Cqquad%20%7D%7B%5Cstackrel%7B%5Cdownarrow%20%7D%7Bm%7Dx%2B%5Cunderset%7B%5Cuparrow%20%7D%7Bb%7D%7D%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%20%5Ccline%7B1-1%7D%20%5Cend%7Barray%7D%20%5C%5C%5C%5C%5B-0.35em%5D%20~%5Cdotfill)

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is 1 and runs through (-5,-6).

Answer:
C 4x -2y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The y-intercept of the offered choices can be found by dividing the constant by the y-coefficient.
A: not in standard form (coefficients are not integers)
B: 2/-5 = -2/5 . . . not -1/2
C: 1/-2 = -1/2 . . . a good candidate
D: 1/-1 = -1 . . . not -1/2
