Answer 1

Answer:

y=1/2x-2

Step-by-step explanation:

perpendicular lines have a neg. reciprocal for the slope.

for example:

in this equation y=-2x+1

-2 is the slope and the negative reciprocal would be 1/2

hence, the slop of our new line is 1/2

y=1/2x+b

we can substitute the coordinates given for x and y:

2=1/2(8)+b

2=4+b

-2=b

hence the new equation is y=1/2x-2
