What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x+2y=28

Answer:

1

Step-by-step explanation:

1) First, place the given equation in slope-intercept form (y = mx +b format) to find its slope easier. Isolate the y:

2x + 2y = 28\\2y = -2x + 28\\y = -x+14

So, the equation of the line in slope-intercept form is y = -x + 14. When an equation is in slope-intercept form, the m, or the coefficient of the x-term, represents the slope. Thus, the slope for the given line would be -1.

2) Lines that are perpendicular have slopes that are opposite reciprocals of each other. We need to find the opposite reciprocal of -1, then.

To find the opposite reciprocal of a number, write the given number as a fraction first -- making -1 be written as   -\frac{1}{1} -- then switch the sign and flip the numerator and denominator. So, the opposite reciprocal of -1 is 1, and 1 is the slope of the perpendicular line.

(1+1/1)(1+1/2)(1+1/3)......(1+1/n)=n+1
podryga [215]

(2/1 )(3/2)(4/3)...(n-1/n-2)(n/n-1)(n+1/n) = n + 1

n + 1 = n + 1

1 = 1 ( Fact )

Thus it is not importent what the value of n is at all because the equation is always have the equal number ( which is 1 ) in both sides .
