Answer:
y = 3x +8
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is -1/3. The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite of the reciprocal of that: -1/(-1/3) = 3.
Then, in point-slope form, the equation of the line is ...
... y - k = m(x - h) . . . . . for slope m through point (h, k)
... y - 5 = 3(x -(-1)) . . . . . for line of slope 3 through (-1, 5)
... y = 3x +8 . . . . . . . . . simplify

To find the difference between two numbers, subtract the number with the smallest value from the number with the largest value. The product of this sum is the difference between the two numbers.
