Question

Write an equation of a line perpendicular to y = 1 over 4x + 4 in slope-intercept form that passes through the point (−2, 6).

Answer 1

can you first find the slope of line
'y = 1 over 4x + 4 '
?

Answer 2

compare \(y = (1/4)x +4 \)
with
\(y= mx+c\)
then you'll get slope = m

Answer 3

In \(\ \sf y = \color{blue}{m}x + c, \color{blue}{m}\) is the slope

so in \(\ \sf y = \color{blue}{\dfrac{1}{4}}x + 4 \) what is the slope?

Answer 4

now can you tell, what slope = m = ... ?
