Answer:
y = -x +5
Step-by-step explanation:
Solving the given equation for y, we have ...
y = x +4
The slope of this line is the coefficient of x: 1. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal of this: -1/1 = -1. The y-intercept of the perpendicular line can be found from ...
b = y -mx = 8 -(-1)(-3) = 5
The perpendicular line has equation ...
y = -x +5
