Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Slope-intercept </u><u>form</u>
y= mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept
Line p: y= -8x +6
slope= -8
The product of the slopes of perpendicular lines is -1. Let the slope of line q be m.
m(-8)= -1
m= -1 ÷(-8)
m= ⅛
Substitute m= ⅛ into the equation:
y= ⅛x +c
To find the value of c, substitute a pair of coordinates that the line passes through into the equation.
When x= 2, y= -2,
-2= ⅛(2) +c
Thus, the equation of line q is .
