The line of the equation perpendicular to y=5 and cuts through (-5,-7) will be given by
m(x-x1)=y-y1
where m=slope.
from y=0x+5, the slope of the perpendicular line m=0,
thus the equation will be:
0(x--5)=y--7
0=y+7
y=-7
The equation is y=-7

1. 3/8 = 9/24
2. 1/6 = 4/24
3. 9/24 + 4/24 = 13/24
4. 1- 13/24 = 11/24
And that’s if! Hoped this helped :)
These are all the correct steps to get the answer to this problem
1)Parallel means they have to have the same slope. Since our equation is y=2/3x+1, a line parallel to that would be(using out points) -5=2/3(-4)+b.
To find the y-intercept, solve for "b".
b=-7/3
Our equation would then be y=2/3x-7/3
2)Perpendicular lines have opposite-reciprocal slopes. our previous equation was y=2/3x+1, so our new equation would be -5=-3/2(-4)+b. Now lets solve for b.
b=-11
So our perpendicular equation would be y=-3/2x-11
Hope that was helpful. :)
