Question

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to 2x+y=−4 and passes through the point (2, −8)?

Enter your equation in the box.


If you help me thank you so much <333

Answer 1

2x + y = -4

slope = -2

perpendicular slope = 1/2

new equation = x - 2y = x

(1) (2)= 2

(-2) (-8)=16

2+16 =18

new equation = x - 2y = 18
