Answer:

Explanation:

Slope of perpendicular line = -1

y = (1/2)x + 5

Slope
m_(1)\\ = 1/2


m_(1)*m_(2)=-1\\\\(1)/(2)*m_(2)=-1\\\\m_(2) = -1*(2)/(1)\\\\ m_(2)= -2

y = -2x + 7

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

The product of the slope of perpendicular lines= -1.

Slope of given line= ½,

since the equation is in the form of y=mx +c, where m is the slope of the line.

½(slope of line)= -1

slope of line

= -1 ÷½

= -1 ×2

= -2
