B. perpendicular to y=x+5 and through (0,8).
Answer by Marth(57) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
A. Find the slope using
Given the points (2,-2) and (4,4),

Now use to find the equation of the line.
Using the point (2,-2) and m=3,

B. is in the form , where m is the slope.
So m=1. The perpendicular slope is , or -1.
You are given the point (0,8) which is on the y axis. Using the slope intercept form , we have
