Answer:  y = -x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

A perpendicular line has a slope that is the negative inverse of the reference line, which is y = x-12.  The slope here is 1, so the negative inverse would be -1/1, or -1.  The perpendicular line would therefore be:

y = -1x + b

We can find b by using the given point (3,-7) as a solution:

y = -1x + b

-7 = -1*3 + b

b = - 4

The equation is therefore   y = -x - 4

Answer:

  10x -5 +5h

Step-by-step explanation:

Use the function definition with the given arguments.

  \dfrac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}=\dfrac{(5(x+h)^2-5(x+h))-(5x^2-5x)}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{(5(x^2+2hx+h^2)-5(x+h))-(5x^2-5x)}{h}\\\\=\dfrac{5x^2+10hx+5h^2-5x-5h-5x^2+5x}{h}=\dfrac{10hx-5h+5h^2}{h}\\\\=\boxed{10x-5+5h}
