Question 100639: Find the slope of all lines perpendicular to the line given by 5x+y=5
Answer by tutorcecilia(2152)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Perpendicular lines have the same slope:
To find the slope, use the formula:
-(A/B) where:
A=5
B=1
C=5
.
-(5/1)=-5
.
So, all slopes of lines perpendicular to 5x+y=5 will have a slope of m=-5
