Answer:

\frac{3}{2}

Step-by-step explanation

  The slope of a perpendicular line would be (-x) if the slope of the original line was (x).

  The formula for finding slope is:

\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Inserting your problem would make the equation look like:

\frac{5-8}{-2+4}

Simplify:

\frac{-3}{2}

That is the slope of the given line, to find the slope of the line perpendicular to that one, we would put into (-x)

Answer:

\frac{3}{2}
