Answer:

The slope of line h is -9/7

Step-by-step explanation:

mathematically, for two lines that are perpendicular to each other, the product of their slopes is equal to -1

say we have two lines l1 and l2, the product of their slopes m1 and m2 is -1

Mathematically;

m1 * m2 = -1

now, m1 here is 7/9 , we now proceed to calculate m2

7/9 * m2 = -1

7m2/9 = -1

7m2 = -9

m2 = -9/7
