Y = 2x - 17, comparing to y = mx + c, slope m = 2.
If perpendicular, the new slope would be -1/2, that is the negative reciprocal of 2.
And passing through (-8 , 1).
using y = mx + c, and x = -8, y = 1, m = -1/2
1 = -1/2*-8 + c
1 = 4 + c
1 - 4 = c
c = -3
y = mx + c, substituting m = -1/2, and c = -3, y = -(1/2)x - 3.
Option C.
