perpendicular line have opposite slope flip and change sign 
what is your slope in the equation that they gave you ??

some.random.cool.kid · Answer

ok same method zale tought you

anonymous · Answer

this is the whole equation

some.random.cool.kid · Answer

plug in the numbers like you did before to start.

anonymous · Answer

which slope the y-y1=m(x-x1)

anonymous · Answer

im lost what nnesha said

nnesha · Answer

you have slope intercept form equation not point |dw:1419910837765:dw|
what is slope here ???

nnesha · Answer

y = mx + b here m is slope always with x

anonymous · Answer

wait thats the answer? y= -4x-2?

some.random.cool.kid · Answer

yeah also to add wenever asked which is the slope look for the number with the x just in case you didnt know.

nnesha · Answer

this is equation that you have in the question

anonymous · Answer

how did you get to the answer can u please draw out the steps?

anonymous · Answer
