Slope is vertical change over horizontal change. Since coordinates conveniently give both the horizontal and vertical coordinates of a points, we can use the coordinates of both points to differentiate, or find the change horizontally and the change vertically between the two points.
Perpendicular = opposite sign and reciprocal slope
Slope 2 turns into -1/2
Y = -1/2x + b
Plug in the point
-5 = -1/2(2) + b, b = -4
Solution: y = -1/2x - 4
It’s 6 i’m pretty sure, your welcome have a good day
