Question 12 (1 point) Find the slope of the line passing through the given points using the slope formula. Enter the slope in simplest form.
Describe the slope as positive, negative, zero, or undefined.
(14.-7) and (4,2)
m =
The slope is (positive/negative/zero/undefined)

3; 9 is 8 to -4

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
