You can put this solution on YOUR website! Write the equation of the line perpendicular to -2x+4y=8 that passes through (-3,1). Write you answer in slope-intercept form.
---------
Step 1, find the slope of the line, call it m1.
Step 2, the slope of lines perpendicular is the negativer inverse, = -1/m1. Call that m2
---
Step 3, use y-y1 = m2*(x - x1) where (x1,y1) is the point (-3,1)
