<span>Perpendicular lines' slopes are reciprocals of one another. So we know the perpendicular line will have a slope of 1/2. Then we can use our points to find the rest. 8=1/2(1)+b 8=0.5+b 7.5=b y=2x+b</span>

After adding everything together you should get y=-2x+10

Answer:

The answer to your question is    y = 4/3x + 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Data

Point A = (2, 3)

Point B = (5, 7)

Process

1.- Calculate the slope

x1 = 2    y1 = 3

x2 = 5    y2 = 7

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)

- Substitution

  m = (7 - 3)/(5 - 2)

- Slope

  m = 4/3

2.- Find the equation of the line

     y - y1 = m(x - x1)

     y - 3 = 4/3(x - 2)

     y - 3 = 4/3x - 8/3

     y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 3

     y = 4/3x - 8/3 + 9/3

     y = 4/3x + 1/3
