Answer:
4/7
Step-by-step explanation:
Original equation, in general form: -7x - 4y - 6
Rearrange to get: 4y = -7x - 6
Divide both sides by 4 to get: y = -7/4(x) - 1.5
To find the slope of a line perpendicular to another line, take the original gradient, and find the negative inverse
So for here,
Original gradient: -7/4
Negative: 7/4
Negative Inverse: 4/7 (which is our gradient)
Done!
