find the slope of a line perpendicular to the graph of this equations
y=2x
Given line has slope = 2 ; perp line must have slope (-1/2)
-----------------------------
y=-x/5-7
Given line has slope = -1/5 ; perp line must have slope 5
-----------------------------
y=-8
Given line has slope = 0 ; perp line must have slope = "undefined"
====================================

y=2x
Perpendicular line slope=-1/2
y=-x/5-7
Perpendicular line slope=5
y=-8
Perpendicular line slope=undefined (a verticle line).
