Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

eq . of line is y=-13 x+2

or 13 x+y=2

eq. of any line perpendicular to above line is

x-13y=c

because it passes through (-5,2)

-5-13(2)=c

c=-31

x-13y=-31

13y=x+31

y=1/13 x +31/5

How can you find vertex, x intercepts and y intercepts

slavikrds [6]

The vertex of a quadratic equation is the minimum or maximum point of the equation. Find that, and you have the vertex. To find the x-intercept of a given linear equation, plug in 0 for 'y' and solve for 'x'. To find the y-intercept, plug 0 in for 'x' and solve for 'y'.
