Yes they do, in the grand aspect of things.
Answer:
y=-8/5x+4
Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of perpendicular lines is the opposite reciprocal of the original equation.
To get the opposite reciprocal, flip the fraction and use the opposite sign.
Here, the slope is -8/5 because that is the opposite of 5/8.
To get the equation of the line, use point-slope and then distribute to get the equation in y=mx+b format.
Point slope: y-y1=m(x-x1). Use the coordinate (5,-4) in the equation.
y+4=-8/5(x-5)
Multiply (x-5) by -8/5 and simplify.
y+4=-8/5x+8
y=-8/5x+4
