*Hint: When the slope of a line is perpendicular, it would have the negative reciprocal.

First, let's simplify this equation into y = mx + b format.

y - 3 = 5(x - 4)
y - 3 = 5x - 20
y = 5x - 17

Since 5 is the slope of this equation, the negative reciprocal would be -1/5.

Answer: -1/5

The straight line P has the equation y= 2x-5
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

y=−x/2+2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in the slope-intercept form is y=2x−5.

The slope of the perpendicular line is negative inverse: m=−12.

So, the equation of the perpendicular line is y=−x/2+a.

To find a, we use the fact that the line should pass through the given point: 3=(−12)⋅(−2)+a.

Thus, a=2.

Therefore, the equation of the line is y=−x/2+2.
