Q. Which of the following is an equation of the line in the xy x y -plane that passes through the point (3,4) (3,-4) and is perpendicular to the line with equation y=14x7 y=\frac{1}{4} x-7 ?\newlineChoose 11 answer:\newline(A) y=14x+8 y=\frac{1}{4} x+8 \newline(B) y=14x8 y=\frac{1}{4} x-8 \newline(c) y=4x+8 y=-4 x+8 \newline(D) y=4x8 y=-4 x-8
  1. Identify slope: Identify the slope of the given line y=14x7y = \frac{1}{4}x - 7.
  2. Perpendicular slope: Determine the slope of the line that is perpendicular to the given line.
  3. Point-slope form: Use the point-slope form to find the equation of the line passing through (3,4)(3, -4) with a slope of 4-4.
