Write an equation in slope-intercept form that passes through (5, -8) and runs perpendicular to y = 5/2x + 4

Answer :

THEINTELIN

y= (-2/5)x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

the slope of the line perpendicular the the given line is found by the formula m1.m2= -1 hence m2= -2/5

using the slope-intercept form

y+8= -2/5(x-5) y= (-2/5)x-6
