Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

To find a slope for a line that is perpendicular to another line, you simply need to take the negative reciprocal of the the original line's slope.  In this case we are already given the slope as the coefficient to x: -1/8.  The negative reciprocal of that is 8/1, or just 8.
