What is the answer to this question?

Perpendicular

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes.

The product of perpendicular slopes = - 1

Calculate the slopes of u and v using the slope formula

m =

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 51, 65) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 46, 96)

m = =

Repeat with (x₁, y₁ ) = (- 37, 85) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 6, 80)

m = = -

Since × - = - 1

Then the lines are Perpendicular

add an !

step-by-step explanation:

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
