Answer:
y = - 3x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 2y = 14 + x into this form
Divide all terms by 2
y = 7 + x ← in slope- intercept form
with slope m =
Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
= - 3, hence
y = - 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the perpendicular line
To find c substitute (- 2, 8) into the partial equation
8 = 6 + c ⇒ c = 8 - 6 = 2
y = - 3x + 2 ← equation of perpendicular line
