The first option is your answer.
Sigma notation is just a fancy way to shorten a sum of a series of numbers using a set equation. The "n =" tells you where to start in the sequence and the top number tells you where to stop.
Answer:
y - 2 = - 5(x - 7)
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in point- slope form is
y - b = m(x - a)
where m is the slope and (a, b) a point on the line
Here m = - 5 and (a, b) = (7, 2) , thus
y - 2 = - 5(x - 7) ← equation in point- slope form

Perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes. So if the slope is -2/5...to find the negative reciprocal, " flip " the slope and change the sign.
So we flip -2/5 and we get 5/-2...and now we change the sign...and we get 5/2. So our perpendicular slope will be 5/2.
