Pretty sure it's (x-7)^2 - 25.
Answer:
y = -1/2x + 17/2
Explanation:
y = 2x + 1 is in slope intercept form
in the equation y = mx+b, m is the slope, and in the equation m =2
the slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the other slope.
slope of perpendicular= -1/m = -1/2
y = -1/2x + b
now find b by substituting in (1,8) into the partial equation
8 = -1/2 + b
b = 8+ 1/2
b = 17/2
please give thanks :) hope this helps
