Aband director uses a coordinate plane to plan as how for a football game. during a show, the drummers will march along the line y=-5x-8. the trumpets players will march along a perpindicluar line that passes thorugh (-2,2). write an equationn in slope-intercdept form for the path of the trumpet players.

The equation in slope-intercept form for the path of the trumpet players is .

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided information.

The drummers will march along the line y=-5x-8.

The trumpets players will march along a perpendicular line that passes through (-2,2).

The slope of line y=-5x-8 is: m₁ = -5.

The slope of perpendicular lines are:

Hence, the slope of the line should be 1/5.

The line passes through (-2,2).

Now use point slope form to find the equation of line.

Substitute m=1/5, x₁=-2 and y₁ = 2 in above formula.

Hence, the equation in slope-intercept form for the path of the trumpet players is .
