Question

The slope of the line perpendicular to y = 3/4 x - 7 is

Answer 1

Hello,
slope of y=3/4 x - 7 is 3/4
so slope of the perpendicular is -4/3

Answer 2

Here is the answer from the given expression above.

The product of slopes of two perpendicular lines is equal to -1 and the slope of the line ( y = 3/4 x - 7) is 3/4.

Let the slope of the line perpendicular to it be m m(3/4) = -1 then m=-4/3

So based on this, the correct answer would be option B. -4/3

Hope this answer helps you!
