Question

Which of the following is the equation of a line perpendicular to the line y =

-10x+1, passing through the point (5,7)?

Answer 1

Answer: The answer is C.

Step-by-step explanation: This is because when you solve you get y=1/10x+6.5 this graph runs through the point (5,7) and is perpendicular to y=-10x+1. In order for two equations to be perpendicular their slopes will be the opposite.
