the standard slope-intercept form for an equation of a line is
\n" ); document.write( "\"y+=+highlight_green%28m%29x+%2B+highlight%28b%29\" where m is the slope and b the y-intercept.
\n" ); document.write( "perpendicular to 8y=x-16 0r \"y+=+highlight_green%281%2F8%29x+%2B+highlight%28-2%29\" ,
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "New Line
\n" ); document.write( "Through (3, -8)
\n" ); document.write( "m = -8 (negative reciprocal of (1/8) \"-8%281%2F8%29+=+-1\"
\n" ); document.write( "***Using point-slope form, \"y+-+y%5B1%5D+=+m%28x+-+x%5B1%5D%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "y + 8 = -8(x-3)
\n" ); document.write( "y = -8x - 16
\n" ); document.write( "0r
\n" ); document.write( "8x + y = -16
