Given a line with slope m, the slope of a perpendicular line is -1/m. So put the equation in slope-intercept form:
- y = -3x + 4.
So slope = -3, and slope of perpendicular line = 1/3. So the new line is: y = mx + b, m = 1/3 and b = 5.
- y = x/3 + 5

Is the line 3x plus 3y equals 5 perpendicular to y equals -5 over 3x plus 3 over 5?
No, the two lines are not perpendicular.
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line 3x plus y equals 7?
Slope of given line = -3 Therefore, slope of perpendicular = 1/3
Is y equals 2x plus 4 and x plus 2y equals 12 a perpendicular or parallel line?
The second equation works out as y = -1/2x+6 therefore it is perpendicular
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 2x plus y equals 8?
For the line 2x + y = 8 , the slope equals ( -2 ) so the required slope of the line which is perpendicular to it is equal to (+1/2 )
