Answer:

  • y = -3x + 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Given line:

  • y = 1/3x - 2/5

Perpendicular lines have negative-reciprocal slopes.

We will have a line:

  • y = -3x + b

Use the coordinates of the given point to find the value of b:

  • -1 = -3(5) + b
  • -1 = - 15 + b
  • b = 14

So the line is:

  • y = -3x + 14
