Answer:
[tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
& 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is [tex]y= -\frac{1}{2} x -5[/tex]
The given equation is in slope intercept form.
So, the slope of the given line is [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
Therefore, the slope of a parallel line to the given line will also be [tex]-\frac{1}{2}[/tex]. {Since slope of two parallel lines are the same}
Now, the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the given line will be 2.
{Simce, the product of slopes of two perpendicular straight lines is -1} (Answer)
