The slope of the perpendicular is -(1/2) .
If: y = 2/5x+10 then the perpendicular slope is -5/2x or -2.5x
+ 1/8
[ y = 2x plus or minus any number ] is parallel to it. [ y = -0.5x plus or minus any number ] is perpendicular to it.
If: 12 = 2y+x then y = -1/2x+6 So: y = 2x+4 and y = -1/2x+6 which means that they are perpendicular lines
No but y = -1/2x+3 is perpendicular to y = 2x+6
y=-2 is parallel to the x-axis and perpendicular to the y-axis.
y = -x/4
Slope of a line perpendicular to x-y=16
The slopes of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocals.[ y = -3x + 2 ] is perpendicular to [ y = x/3 plus any number ].
Parallel. They both have a slope of 4.
Neither perpendicular nor parallel
It is: y = -1/2x-8
-1
No, they are perpendicular.
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
The second equation works out as y = -1/2x+6 therefore it is perpendicular
