Question 358390: how to write an equation of a line containing the given point and perpendicular to the given point (0,8); 8x+7y=6

The unknown equation has the standard form 7x - 8y = c, where c is an unknown constant. To solve for c, plug in x = 0, y = 8:
7*0 - 8*8 = c. So c = -64. Therefore the equation of the line is 7x - 8y = -64, or 7x - 8y + 64 = 0.
