Question

Whatbis the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line y= 2x-6? A. -2

B. 2 C. 1/6 D. -1/2

Answer 1

D. -1/2

Explanation:

When a line is perpendicular to another line the slope will be the exact opposite. For example line A = y = 3x + 5 the line perpendicular to it will be -1/3x.

So -1/2 is the slope of your perpendicular line.
