What? HAHAHAHAHA it's the same. I mean the choices are the same
Answer:
fourth one
Step-by-step explanation:
First you need to rewrite the equation in the form y = mx +b:
2y = x-4
Divide all terms by 2:
2y / 2 = x/2 - 4/2
Simplify:
y = 1/2x - 2
The slope of the line is 1/2.
A perpendicular line has a slope of the negative reciprocal, which would be -2.
Now using the point slope method:
y - y1 = m(x-x1)
Using the given point of (8,-4) and m = -2
you get:
y +4 = -2(x-8)
Simplify:
y +4 = -2x +16
Now subtract 4 from both sides to get the final equation:
y = -2x +12
Point-slope form: y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-2 = -8(x+8)
y-2 = -8x-64
y = -8x-62
Perpendicular = reciprocal
-8 becomes 1/8
Answer: y = (1/8)x - 62
