i need help with this problemwrite an equation of the line in slope intercept form that passes through the point (-8,-7) and is perpendicular to the line y=4x-3.

y=-1/4x - 9

perpendicular line has the negative reciprocal of slope of the line given. So slope for the equation is m=-1/4 You use the point-slope form{y-y1=m(x-x1)} to find the equation with the piont (-8,-7). I found the equation is y=-1/4x-9.
