You can put this solution on YOUR website! find an equation of a line. write an equation using function notation.
through(4,-7) perpendicular to 4y=x-8
------
Given line slope::
y = (1/4)x - 2
slope = 1/4
-----
Solve of the perpendicular line: -4
-----
Form of the perpendicular line:
y = mx + b
-7 = -4*4 + b
b = 9
--------
Equation of the perpendicular line:
y = -4x + 9
