Which equation is perpendicular to y = 4 x - 6 and passes through point (8 , 12)?

O y = 4 x - 20
Oy= 4x + 44
o y=-x+ 14
O y= * x + 10

Which equation is perpendicular to y = 4 x - 6 and passes through point (8 , 12)? O-example-1

Y = -1/4x + 14
You’re looking for a line that’s perpendicular to the given line. The slope of two perpendicular lines will always be opposite. So 4x would be -1/4x. Change the denominator and numerator spots and the negative/positive sign. Once you have the slope then the answer is obvious.
