What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 6x+4y=-56

First, put the equation of the line given into slope-intercept form by solving for y. You get y = -2x +5, so the slope is –2. Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes, so the slope of the line we want to find is 1/2. Plugging in the point given into the equation y = 1/2x + b and solving for b, we get b = 6.Step-by-step explanation:

after simplifying it i got: -36.25 as my answer. hope that !
