Question

write an equation in slope intercept form of a line passing through the point (2,-3) that is perpendicular to a line whose slope is 5

Answer 1

1) find slope. when its perpendicular, It will be a negative reciprocal to the given slope so m1= -1/m1
m=-1

2)
`y=mx+b`
y =-1x+b
(-3)=-1(2)+b
-3=-2+b
b=-1

3) y=-1x-1

hope I helped!
