Solve for y the the number in front of the x is the slope.
x=12y
1/12*x=y
Slope is 1/12.

That's a vertical line; the slope is not defined.
First, you need to find the slope of the line we're given: 2x = 12y + 4 ∴ x = 6y + 3 ∴ 6y = x - 3 ∴ y = x/6 - 3 By that we can see that the slope of the line given is 1/6. To find the slope that is perpendicular, all you need to do reverse that fraction. Instead of 1/6, it would be 6/1. So the answer to your question is 6.
Slope of a line perpendicular to x-y=16
The equation for the slope of a line is y=mx+b
The graph of the equation [ x = -3 ] is a straight vertical line, passingthrough the point [ x = -3 ] on the x-axis. Its slope is infinite.
