Answer:
4/9
Step-by-step explanation:
The line y=3 is a vertical line. Thus, another line that is perpendicular to y=3 is a horizontal line. If this horiz. line passes thru the point (5, -6), then x = 5 is the desired equation.
The slope of this graph would be -1/3 because it goes down 1 unit and over 3 units
Gradient
= (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
= (-9-(-5))(-2-(-4))
= (-4)(2)
= -8
