Which of the following could be the equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x−5y=7?

Which of the following could be the equation of a line perpendicular to the line 2x5y7 class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

B.

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert the equation to slope-intercept form:

2x - 5y = 7

-5y = -2x + 7

y = 2/5 x - 7/5

So the slope of the given line  is 2/5.

So the slope of a perpendicular line will be -1/ 2/5 = -5/2.

Take B:

5x + 2y = 3

2y = -5x + 3

y = -5/2.

So its B.
