Answer:

y - 2 = (-1/4)(x - 8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is 4.  The slope of any line perpendicular to the given line is the negative reciprocal of 4, which is -1/4.

Use the point-slope formula:

y - k = m(x - h), where (h, k) is the given point.

Then:  y - 2 = (-1/4)(x - 8)
