Consider the line y = 7x-5. What is the slope of a line parallel to this line?
What is the slope of a line perpendicular to this line?

Step-by-step explanation:

First, identify the slope.

We are given the line y=7x-5.

This is in slope intercept form or y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept. So, the coefficient to x, or 7 in this case, is the slope.

Now, find the parallel and perpendicular slopes.

1. Parallel Slope

Parallel lines never intersect, so they have the same slope. A parallel line has a slope of 7.

2. Perpendicular Slope

Perpendicular slopes intersect to form right angles. They have negative reciprocal slopes.

A parallel line has a slope of 7 and a perpendicular line has a slope of -1/7.

(2,20) means that the 2 is 2 hours and 20 is 20$. so there both 20$ for 2 hours only the same price. like it says. so, the dunk tank and the bounce house are the same price (20$) for the same amount of time (2 hours).
