Rewrite the equation in slope intercept form:
Y -6 = -3(x - -8)
Use the distributive property on the right side first:
Y -6 = -3x -24
Add 6 to both sides
Y = -3x -18
The slope is the number in front of the x variable.
Slope = -3
Answer:
2
Step-by-step explanation:
6x2=12 12/6=2
Answer:
-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
the slope of the line 2x-y=5 is 2
a perpendicular line has the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line
hopefully this helps :)
