We need to convert this equation to slope-intercept form first.
We can do that by solving for y.
x - 5y = 15
<em><u>Add 5y to both sides.</u></em>
x = 5y + 15
<em><u>Subtract 15 from both sides.</u></em>
x - 15 = 5y
<em><u>Divide both sides by 5.</u></em>
y = 1/5x - 3
We now know the slope is 1/5.
The slope of the line perpendicular to the line with a slope of 1/5 is -5.
The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
Using a graphing calculator, we know the y-intercept of the line that is perpendicular to the original line must have a y-intercept of -6 to run through the points (-2, 5).
The equation of the new line is y = -5x - 6.
We will check each options and verify it
(a)
we can plug m=2
so, this is FALSE
(b)
we can plug x=3
so, this is TRUE
(c)
we can plug x=3
so, this is FALSE
(d)
now, we can plug x=2
So, this is FALSE
This question is tricky.
