Answer:

the 4th answer : 4

Step-by-step explanation:

the easiest way to see the slope is focusing on the points with integer coordinates.

so, we see that when x increases by 4 units, y decreases by 1 unit.

as the slope is the ratio "y coordinate change / x coordinate change", it is therefore -1/+4 = -1/4.

the perpendicular slope is turning the original slope upside-down and flips the sign.

it is therefore

4/1 = 4.
