Identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to y =-4x + 8 that passes through (-2, 7)

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The point-slope form of a line is given by:

The line given to us has equation; .

The slope of this line is -4. The of the line perpendicular to this line is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the given line.

Our slope of interest is therefore;

Since the point goes through (-2,7), we have .

We plug in the slope and the point into the point-slope formula to obain;

The required equation is:

gregory's graph is incorrect because it shows 2 inches of growth for each week when it should show 0.75 inches of growth each week.
