Question

Wht is the slope of a line perpendicular to a line that contains the points (0, 2) and (-3, 4)?

Select the best answer from the choices provided.

Answer 1

Your answer should be -2/3

Explanation:

If you use the equation of slope=y2-y1/x2-x1 and fill in for the variables, the answer is -2/3

Answer 2

- 2/3

Explanation:

Slope =

change in y /change in x

From the question

x1 =0

y1=2

x2= -3

y2= 4

Slope = y2 -y1 / x2 - x1

Substitute the values into the formula

4 - 2 /-3 -0

2/-3

- 2/3
