Question

What's the correct equation of the line passing through the point (-1, 7) and perpendicular to
y = -x - 5?

Answer 1

well use y = m x + b like this ... hold on

Answer 2

7= m *-1+b plug in the y and x you are given

since a line perpendicula to -1 is just inverting it and multipllying by -1 you get

1

7=1*-1*b

sfb 8

y=1*x+8

i think :)

Answer 3

was i right?

Answer 4

Yes, thank you (:

Answer 5

De nada :)
