Find the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and passes through the given point. enter your answer in slope intercept form y=mx+b with the values of m and b given as decimals, rounded to the nearest hundredth. y =10x ; (8,-2)

m= -0.1

b= -1.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the given line is

y=10x, slope of the given line is 10.

As the line is perpendicular to this line, the slope  is

m= -0.1

( product of slope of two perpendicular lines is -1)

thus the equation is

now to find the value of b, input the point coordinates (8, -2) in the above equation.

b = -1.2
