Solve the problem.
-Find the equation of the line through $( 0 , - 8 )$ and perpendicular to the line $y = - 4 x + 4$.
A) $y = \frac { 1 } { 4 } x + 8$
B) $y = \frac { 1 } { 4 } x - 8$
C) $y = - 4 x - 8$
D) $y = - \frac { 1 } { 4 } x - 8$

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The slope of the given line is -4. A line perpendicular to it will have a slope of $\frac{1}{4}$. Using the point-slope form with point (0, -8), the equation is $y = \frac{1}{4}x - 8$.
