Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-7X

The slope of this line is -7

Perpendicular lines have slopes that multiply to -1

-7 * m = -1

Divide each side by -7

m = -1 / -7

m = 1/7

The slope of the perpendicular line is 1/7

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular slope can be calculated by take the opposite/negative reciprocal of the given slope. This means multiply the given slope by -1 (so if it is negative it becomes positive and if it is positive then becomes negative) and then flip the numerator and denominator.

So -7 is the slope of the given equation (y = mx + b where is m is slope and b is the y-intercept).

to find perpendicular slope..

Step 1. Multiple -7 by -1 = 7

Step 2. Flip 7/1 to 1/7

Answer: 1/7 is perpendicular slope
