As you can see on the graph, when x=-2, y=-3.
Using the midpoint formula we get:
(x,y)=(0+5/2, 0+12/2) or (5/2, 6) as the midpoint.
The slope of the line perpendicular to the line seen in the picture is - 2 / 3.
<h3>How to determine the slope of a line perpendicular to another line</h3>
The slope of a function is determined by the secant line formula and is defined by the following expression:
m = Δy / Δx (1)
Where:
- Δx - Change in the independent variable.
- Δy - Change in the dependent variable.
- m - Slope of the line.
Besides, by analytical geometry, the slope of a line perpendicular to another line is equal to:
m' = - 1 / m
If we know that Δx = 2 and Δy = 3, then the slope of the line perpendicular to the line seen in the picture is:
m = 3 / 2
m' = - 1 / (3 / 2)
m' = - 2 / 3
The slope of the line perpendicular to the line seen in the picture is - 2 / 3.
