What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line 2x - 7y = - 37?

Step-by-step explanation:

put ur equation in y = mx + b form and ur slope will be in the m position

2x - 7y = - 37

-7y = - 2x - 37

y = 2/7x + 37/7 ... so we have a slope of 2/7

a perpendicular line will have a negative reciprocal slope. All that means is flip the slope and change the sign.

slope 2/7 ... flip it ... 7/2 ... change the sign ... - 7/2.

so a perpendicular line will have a slope of - 7/2 <==
