Question

The lines below are perpendicular. If the slope of the green line is 3/2, what is the slope of the red line​?

A. 2/3
B. -2/3
C. -3/2
D. 3/2

Answer 1

The answer is B

I use an online graphing calculator called Desmos. You should check it out some time :)

Answer 2

-2/3

Explanation:

Perpendicular slopes have lines that multiply to -1

m* 3/2 = -1

Multiply each side by 2/3

m* 3/2 * 2/3 = -1 * 2/3

m = -2/3

The slope of the perpendicular line is -2/3
