(4,-1), y = 8, Perpendicular?
Write an equation for the line that contains the given point and is perpendicular to the given line. But in this case I don't see much of a line so that's where I'm stuck in the pickle.

y = 8 is a horizontal line with no slope. A perpendicular line through 4,1 is x = 4.

The line is: x=4
y=8 would be a horizontal line across it, x=4 is a vertical line.
