Based on the fact that the line is perpendicular and the points are (-4, 7) and (1,3) the equation to represent this is A. y = 5/4x + 8.
What equation represents perpendicular lines?
The slopes of lines that are perpendicular are negative reciprocals of each other because they have to lead up to 0 which will then allow a perpendicular intercept.
The slope for the line passing through (-4, 7) and (1, 3) is:
= (3 - 7) / (1 - (-4))
= -4 / 5
The negative reciprocal of -4/5 is:
= 5/4
The equation for the other line is:
y = 5/4x + 8
