Help stuck on question number 9

Answer 1

Answer:

y=4x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that a line perpendicular to the equation (y= -1/4x-14) would have an opposite reciprocal slope.

The slope from the given equation is -1/4x. Take the opposite reciprocal and you get 4/1x or 4x as your slope.

Now use the point-slope formula to find your b value.

(y-y1)=m(x-x1)

m= 4

Plug in (3,8) for x and y, and solve.

(y-8)= 4(x-3)

y-8= 4x -12

y=4x-4
