What is the slope of a line perpendicular to y = 8 - 2/7x?

The slope of the current line is -2/7. To find the slope of the line perpendicular to it, find the negative reciprocal of the slope. So it would be 7/2. The y intercept or the b would remain the same so the equation would be y=7/2x+8. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The slope of this line would be 7/2

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find this, you need to know that perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes. This means we take the slope of the original line (-2/7) and change the sign to get 2/7. Now we flip the fraction to get 7/2, which would be your new slope.

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given points.<br><br> (0,−3),(3,3)

Delicious77 [7]

I find it easiest to use slope-intercept form, or y=mx+b, to do this.

First, find the slope. 6/3 = 2/1 = 2. m = 2.

Next, find the y-intercept. In this case they gave it to you directly. b = -3.

So, the equation would be y = 2x - 3.
