Unfortunately, limitations of the browser used by Answers.com means that we cannot see most symbols. It is therefore impossible to give a proper answer to your question. Please resubmit your question spelling out the symbols as "plus", "minus", "equals" etc. Also use ^ to indicate powers (eg x-squared = x^2).
The question suggests that the second given curve is a quadratic (a parabola). If that is the case then its gradient is not constants and so the gradient of the perpendicular is indeterminate.

Find the equation of the line perpendicular when the slope is zero?
when the slope is 0, the graph is a horizontal line on the x axis so the y axis is perpendicular to it, which can be written x=0
What is the y intercept and slope in this equation x equals -5?
There is no y-intercept or slope for this given equation, because its graph is a vertical line perpendicular to the x-axis.
The line given by the equation y equals -8x is perpendicular to what line?
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
What is the graph of linear equation?
The graph will be a line.
When does an equation graph a line?
When it is a linear equation.
Which equation represents a line perpendicular to the graph of 3x-6y12?
Solve the line equation for "y", to get it in slope-intercept form. You can immediately read the slope from this equation.Divide -1 by (slope of this first line) to get the slope of the second line - the one perpendicular to the given line. Write an equation for any line with this slope.
Find the equation of the line perpendicular when the slope is zero?
when the slope is 0, the graph is a horizontal line on the x axis so the y axis is perpendicular to it, which can be written x=0
How do I write an equation in slope-intercept form for a line perpendicular to the graph of the equation that passes through the x-intercept of that line?
As for example the perpendicular equation to line y = 2x+6 could be y = -1/2x+6 because the negative reciprocal of 2x is -1/2x
What is the y intercept and slope in this equation x equals -5?

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the graph of the equation below 2.1x - 5y equals 6.9?
Gradient of given line is 2.1/5 = 21/50 So gradient (slope) of perpendicular is -50/21 = -2.381 (to 3 dp)
When does an equation graph a line?
When it is a linear equation.
Graph the line perpendicular to 7x plus 10y equals 4.5?
7x + 10y = 4.5 : 10y = -7x + 4.5 : y = -x.7/10 + 0.45, the gradient of this line is -7/10 Two straight lines are perpendicular if the product of their gradients is -1. Let the equation for the perpendicular line be y = mx + c Then m x -7/10 = -1 : m = 10/7 The equation for the perpendicular line is y = x.10/7 + c If the values of x and y for the point of intersection are provided then these can be substituted in the perpendicular line equation and the value of c obtained. If appropriate, the equation can then be restructured to a format similar to the original equation.

If a line has no y-intercept what can you say about the line?
-- I can say that the equation of the line is [ x = a number ]. -- I can also say that the line is vertical on a graph. -- I can also say that the line is parallel to the y-axis. -- Also that it's perpendicular to the x-axis.
