Answer:

y = -4x -16

Step-by-step explanation:

Line perpendicular have the slope = -1/m

Substitute the values,

8 = (-4)(-6) + c

8 = 24 + c

c = -16

Thus, the equation of the perpendicular line is y = -4x-16

If f(x) = _4x _ 1, find f(_2)

tia_tia [17]

The answer is 7

f(x) = -4x - 1
f(-2) = ?

Since f(x) = f(-2), then x = -2. Now just substitute x in the function:
f(-2) = (-4) * (-2) - 1
f(-2) = 8 - 1
f(-2) = 7
