Any line whose slope is the negative reciprocal of that line's slope will be perpendicular to it. Given the format in which it's written, we can see that this line's slope is -8. This means that any line with a slope of 1/8 will be perpendicular to it. The most obvious one being:
y = x/8 + 6
But there are an infinite number of lines with that slope, and thus an infinite number of lines that are perpendicular to the given one. For example, the line:
y = x/8 + 258734095874390587423
is just as valid an answer.

The line given by the equation y equals -8x is perpendicular to what line?
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
When graphed are the lines y equals 8x plus 4 and y equals 8x parallel perpendicular or neither?
The slope of both lines is 8. So they're parallel.
Are 3x-4y equals -5 and 8x plus 6y equals -5 parallel or perpendicular lines?
They are perpendicular lines because the slopes are 3/4 and -4/3 respectively.
How do you write 8x plus 4y equals 5?
8x plus 4y equals 5 is 8x + 4y = 5.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 8x plus 2y equals 4?
-4
What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the graph of 8x plus y equals 6?
+ 1/8
The line given by the equation y equals -8x is perpendicular to what line?
It would be perpendicular to a line with the equation Y = 1/8 X.
When graphed are the lines y equals 8x plus 4 and y equals 8x parallel perpendicular or neither?
The slope of both lines is 8. So they're parallel.
What is the slope of this line 2y equals -8x plus 1?
-4
What is the slope of the line 8x plus 2y equals 16?
the slope of the line is -4
Are 3x-4y equals -5 and 8x plus 6y equals -5 parallel or perpendicular lines?
They are perpendicular lines because the slopes are 3/4 and -4/3 respectively.
Y-8x plus 9y equals?
Y-8x plus 9y equals 10y-8x.
How do you write 8x plus 4y equals 5?
8x plus 4y equals 5 is 8x + 4y = 5.
What is the slope of a line that is parallel to the line represented by the equation 8x plus 2y equals 4?
-4
What is the y intercept of the line y equals 8x plus 7?
7 is the y intercept
Is y equals 8x-3 parallel to 8x plus y equals 3?
No.
What is the x value of -8x plus 8x plus 4 equals -24?
- 8x + 8x = 0 so question is meaningless.
