What is the equation of the line passing through ( -5, -3 ) and perpendicular
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

y = 7/5x + 4

Step-by-step explanation:

use the slope from the equation -5/7 and take the negative reciprocal to get the perpendicular slope = 7/5. Then use the equation y=mx+b. Plug in x and y from the point given and the new slope and solve for b.

(-3) = (7/5)(-5) + b, (-3) = -7 + b, add 7 to both sides. b = 4. Rewrite the equation now to be y = 7/5x + 4
