Question

Line $j$ is perpendicular to $\frac{y}{3}+\frac{2x}{5}=2$. What is the slope of line $j$?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of $\frac{y}{3}+\frac{2x}{5}$ is -3. When a line is perpendicular to another, it's slope will be the negative reciprocal of the other line. -3 could also be written as $-\frac{3}{1}$ , and if you take the reciprocal, it would be $-\frac{1}{3}$ , and the negative form of this (since a negative plus a negative is a positive) would be $\frac{1}{3}$ .
