You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to the line y = 4x - 10 that passes through the point (-16, 2)
-----------
the slope of y = 4x - 10 is 4.
---
Find the slope of lines perpendicular, call it m.
Use:
y-y1 = m*(x - x1) where (x1,y1) is the point.
