What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line of y=-1/4x-1

Mathematics

Answer: 4

The given line has a slope of -1/4 as this is the number in front of the x. The general equation y = mx+b has m as the slope. So m = -1/4 is given

Flip the sign to get -1/4 turn into +1/4 or just 1/4

Then flip the fraction (aka reciprocal) to go from 1/4 to 4/1 and that simplifies to 4.

Multiplying the original slope (-1/4) and the perpendicular slope (4) will result in -1.

Airida [17]
Replace x in the equation with 3.5 and do the arithmetic.
  y = 1.3*3.5 -0.52
  y = 4.55 -0.52
  y = 4.03

The predicted approximate value of y is 4.03.
