Answer:
Therefore, equation of the line that passes through (16,-7) and is perpendicular to the line  is
 is  
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
 
To Find:
Equation of line passing through ( 16, -7) and is perpendicular to the line 
 
  
Solution:
 ...........Given
...........Given

Comparing with,  
 
Where m =slope  
We get
 
We know that for Perpendicular lines have product slopes = -1.

Substituting m1 we get m2 as

Therefore the slope of the required line passing through (16 , -7) will have the slope,
 
Now the equation of line in slope point form given by
 
Substituting the point (16 , -7)  and slope m2 we will get the required equation of the line,
 
Therefore, equation of the line that passes through (16,-7) and is perpendicular to the line  is
 is
