Given the statement "if a line is horizontal, then it has slope equal to zero,” what is its contrapositive? if a line is horizontal, then it has zero slope. if a line has zero slope, then it is a horizontal line. if a line is not horizontal, then it does not have zero slope. if a line does not have zero slope, then it is not a horizontal line.

Contrapositive are the statements in which we switch the hypothesis and the conclusion of the statement and then we take the negation of both.

Here the hypothesis is " A line is horizontal"

And the conclusion is " slope equal to zero"

In order to make the contrapositive statement we switch the hypothesis and conclusion and then take negation.

Therefore, the contrapositive statement is given by

If a line does not have zero slope, then it is not a horizontal line.

Last option is correct.

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17

-22

times both sides by 2, times () by 8, add alile terms, move terms, add alike and caculate divide both sides by 3
