Answer 1

Answer:

y = -5x + 6

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 1/5 x + 4/5

so that two lines are perpendicular, its slope must be opposite and reciprocal

y = m x + b

m: slope           perpendicular  -1/m

if our formula is     y = 1/5 x + 4/5

m = 1/5

so the slope of our new formula will be

m' = -5/1

m' = -5

now if you tell us that you have to go through a certain point  (1/1)

we just have to replace the values ​​in the following formula and solve

y - y1 = m ( x - x1)

y - 1 = -5 ( x - 1)

y = -5x + 5 + 1

y = -5x + 6
