Answer:

-1

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the slope intercept formula(y=mx+b) to find the slope of a line.

First, you will want to put everything into it's proper order, so you will get -y=-x+5.

You cannot have a negative y, so divide everything by -1 and you will get y=x-5.

1 is the slope. Now that you know that, you will want to find the reciprocal. To find the reciprocal, you will need to swap the numerator and the denominator and then swap it's sign, whether that is positive or negative..

The reciprocal of 1 is -1. -1 is the slope of the perpendicular line
