I always wonder if the sun could explode. Would nuclear weapons that are strong enough cause it to or something else.

Humans evolved from chimps and chimps from other mammals and so on back to bacteria and single celled organisms. How come no other animals seem to be evolving to the point of being "intelligent" like us humans? Surely with us killing all the less intelligent animals over the years (road kill bunnies for example!), natural selection would favour animals that could outsmart us or be able to cross a road safely - eventually? Just a thought!

Firstly i`m not able to put the line y=-1 into the form y=mx+b.

Y=mx+b
y=0(x)-1 or Y=m(0)-1 ??????
If i take y=m(0)-1 as correct then the slope is 'm' and the negetive reciprocal is -1/m (slope of the perpendicular)

Using the point (3,4) and the slope of the orthogonal line,
Y=mx+b

4=-1/m (3) +b
b=4+(3/m)
