Question

write the point slope form of the line that passes through -8, 2 and is perpendicular to the line with a slope of negative 8​

Answer 1

y = -1/8x + 1

Explanation:

Line perpendicular to 8 is -1/8

If the line were to start at the origin, then y- intercept would be 0, and it would pass through the point (-8, 1) To pass through point (-8, 2), add 1 to y in the first example.
