It could be: y = -2x+3 whereas -2 is the slope and 3 is the y intercept

2. Parallel lines have the same slope.
Answer:-10/2=-5Solution:The relation between the line slope and it's perpendicular line slope is negative reciprocal, i.e.Slope of the line perpendicular = -1/Slope of the line= -1/(2/10)= -1 x 10/2= -10/2= -5
The slope of the perpendicular to a line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of the original line's slope.The negative reciprocal of x is -1/xSo in this case, where the slope is -2 the perpendicular line has the slope -1/(-2) or simply 1/2
y = 2x - 2
Th opposite reciprocal. So if one line has a slope of 2 then the other line will have a slope of -1/2
