Question

Consider the line y = 6x-2.
What is the slope of a line parallel to this line?
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Answer 1

Answer:

Slope of a parallel line: y = 6x

Slope of a perpendicular line: y = -1/6x

Step-by-step explanation:

For parallel, just take the slope and for perpendicular, find the negative reciprocal of the slope of the original line
