Find the equation of the line through point (1,−5) and perpendicular to y=1/8x+2. Use a forward slash (i. e. "/") for fractions (e. g. 1/2 for 12).

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line:

The equation of a line has the following format:

In which m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

Perpendicular lines:

When two lines are perpendicular, the multiplication of their slopes is -1.

Perpendicular to y=1/8x+2

This line has slope

So, for the line we want to find the equation, we have that:

So

Find the equation of the line through point (1,−5)

This means that when . We use this to find b. So:

The equation of the line is:

i think is 3 and 6. this took me 10 min to think.hope to and hope that my answer is brainliest.(follow me )

constants mean the stopped points or the points on a graph that nothing is changing, hope this
