*Hint: When the slope of a line is perpendicular, it would have the negative reciprocal.

First, let's simplify this equation into y = mx + b format.

y - 3 = 5(x - 4)
y - 3 = 5x - 20
y = 5x - 17

Since 5 is the slope of this equation, the negative reciprocal would be -1/5.

Answer: -1/5

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (−1,6) and is parallel to the line 2x+y=9
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

2x + y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + y = 9 => y = -2x + 9

Parallel lines have the same slope so m = -2

Given (-1,6)

y = mx + b

6 = -2(-1) + b

6 = 2 + b

b = 4

so y = -2x + 4 or 2x + y = 4
