Question

If y = mx + b is the equation of a line perpendicular to the line y = 5x – 2, what is the value of m?

Answer 1

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

A.) -1/5   i hope this helps!   :)

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = 5x - 2

the perpindicular line to y = 5x - 2

you have to flip the 5x to be a negative and flip it to 1 over 5

y = -1/5x - 2 is perpendicular to the line y = 5x - 2
