    Perpendicular linees have slopes that multiply to - 1

    paralell lines have slopes that are the same

    also

    for ax+by=c

    the slope is - a/b

    so

    10x - 5y = 8? slope is - 10/-5=2, paralell so slope of parallell line is also 2 (B)

    4x + 2y = 5? slope is - 4/2=-2, paralell so slope of paralell line is also - 2 (E)

    x - 3y = 9? slope is - 1/-3=1/3, perpendicular, so 1/3 times - 3=-1 (C)

    x - 5y = - 10? slope is - 1/-5=1/5, perpendicular, so 1/5 times - 5=-1 (A)

    4x + y = - 1? slope is - 4/1=-4, parallel so - 4 (D)

    What is the slope of a line parallel to 10x - 5y = 8? B

    What is the slope of a line parallel to 4x + 2y = 5? E

    What is the slope of a line perpendicular to x - 3y = 9? C

    What is the slope of a line perpendicular to x - 5y = - 10? A

    What is the slope of a line parallel to 4x + y = - 1? D
