What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is x+ 2y = –16. Fully reduce your answer.

slope = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

Given

x + 2y = - 16 ( subtract x from both sides )

2y = - x - 16 ( divide all terms by 2 )

y = - x - 8 ← in slope- intercept form

with slope m = -

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

= - = - = 2

false

step-by-step explanation:

false.   two legs of the trapezoid would be congruent, but the other two would not.   were all the legs congruent, then we'd have a square; were the 2 shorter sides congruent and the 2 longer sides also congruent, we'd have a rectangle.

it is true
