the slope of the line is -2 over 1 or -2 because the equation is in slope intercept form. Where y=mx+b. M is refered to as the slope and b is the y intercept.
The slope of the perpendicular is -(1/2) .
If: y = 2/5x+10 then the perpendicular slope is -5/2x or -2.5x
4x+2y = 6 2y = -4x+6 y = -2x+3 Perpendicular slope is 1/2
In the straight line equation of y = 2x+14 the slope or gadient is 2 and the y intercept is 14
I assume the question should be y = -2x + 5? The equation of a line that is parallel to that line is any line that begins 7 = -2x ... after the -2x any number may be added or subtracted. Parallel lines have the same slope. In the original equation, the slope is -2.
The slope of the line of 2x plus 2y equals 7 is (7/2x - 1).
Slope is 2.
Slope = 2
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 )
- 2/3
The slope of the perpendicular is -(1/2) .
2x+y = 10 or y = -2x + 10 so the slope is -2
The slope of a line perpindicular to y=-2x+5 is 1/2 because a perpindicular slope is the negative reciprocal of the slope.
answer is y=(4/3)-(2x/3)
the slope is - 2 and the y intercept is 4
It is -1/2
Perpendicular lines have a negative reciprocal slope. Slope of y=2x+5 is 2/1 negative reciprocal is (-1/2)
