SAT Math Practice Problem: Slope

Welcome back to Mathed Up! In this video, we tackle another SAT practice problem from the College Board website. Today, we’re diving into graphing and algebra with a focus on perpendicular lines. We’ll walk through the process of finding the slope of a line perpendicular to a given line, K, defined by the equation y = 7x + 1. Understand the concept of slope as rise over run, and see how to determine the slope of line J, which is perpendicular to line K. Tune in to master this SAT concept and boost your math skills! 📚 Welcome to MathedUp! 📚
