Choose the equation of a line in standard form that satisfies the given conditions. perpendicular to 4x + y = 8 through (4, 3). Step 1: Find the slope of the line 4x + y = 8. In y = mx + b form, we have y = -4x + 8. The slope is -4. To be perpendicular to a line, the slope must be a negative reciprocal of the line it intersects with. Reciprocal of -4 = -1/4 Negative of this = -1(-1/4) = 1/4 Using our [URL='https://www.mathcelebrity.com/slope.php?xone=4&yone=3&slope=+0.25&xtwo=3&ytwo=2&bvalue=+&pl=You+entered+1+point+and+the+slope']slope calculator[/URL], we get [B]y = 1/4x + 2[/B]
