Question

what would be the slope of the line perpendicular to the line 2x+3y=-15

Answer 1

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the equation is -2/3 so the other slope must be opposite reciprocal

Answer 2

Answer:

3/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When you rearrange the equation into y=mx+b, you get y=-2/3x-15

The slope of the given line is -2/3 and you have to take the opposite reciprocal so flip the fraction and change the sign.

This gives the slope 3/2
