A line has an x-intercept of –5 and a y-intercept of 1. Determine the slope of a line parallel to this line.

Step-by-step explanation:

A line with an x-intercept of -5 has the coordinates (-5, 0); that same line with a y-intercept of 1 has the coordinates of (0, 1). The slope of this line is

A line that is perpendicular to this one will have a slope of -5.

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
