Y = -1/5x + 2
A line perpendicular to another line has an opposite reciprocal slope. What opposite means is that you flip the sign (from - to + or from + to -) and reciprocal means that you flip the numerator and denominator (so if line A is perpendicular to line B and line As slope is -3, line Bs slope would be 1/3).
First find the slope of 5x - y = -3
Add y to both sides
5x = y - 3
Add 3 to both sides
y = 5x + 3
So the slope of the line is 5. That means the slope of of the perpendicular line is -1/5.
Plug the slope of the perpendicular line and the point (5, 1) into point slope form to solve the equation
y - y1 = m(x - x1)
y - 1 = -1/5(x - 5)
y - 1 = -1/5x + 1
y = -1/5x + 2
Answer:
y= -69/8 (negative 69 over 8)
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you have to simplify both sides of the equation:

Second, add 3/4 to both sides:
-2/3y +-3/4 + 3/4=5 +3/4
-2/3y= 23/4
Next, multiply both sides by 3/(-2) (3 over -2)
(3/-2)*(-2/3y)= (3/-2) * (23/4)
<em><u></u></em>
<em><u>y= -69/8</u></em>
