Question

ASAP!!! HELP!!! Consider the line y = 4x + 9. If a second line is perpendicular to this one, what is its slope?

Answer 1

`-(1)/(4)`

Explanation:

find the slope of y= 4x+9

m=4

find the integer

-
`(1)/(4)`

Answer 2

- 1/4

Explanation:

THIS line equation is of the form y = mx + b m is the slope of this line

and it equals 4

PERPENDICULAR slope = - 1/m (ya just gotta learn this)

so that would be - 1/4
