Answer:

y=[tex]\frac{1}{2}x-2[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal gradients(slopes) so the slope of your new line would be 1/2. Then you use the point to find the new y-intercept

y=mx+b

2=[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex](8)+b

2=4+b

B=-2

y=[tex]\frac{1}{2}x-2[/tex]
