GEOMETRY HELP ASAP

Which equations represent the line that is perpendicular to the line 5x − 2y = −6 and passes through the point (5, −4)? Check all that apply.

y = –x – 2
2x + 5y = −10
2x − 5y = −10
y + 4 = –(x – 5)
y – 4 = (x + 5)

Answer:

2x + 5y = −10

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case you should first make the equation y = mx + b form.

-2y = -5x - 6

y = 5/2x + 3

Now we know the slope is 5/2

If you want it to be perpendicular then you have to make the slop the opposite reciprocal.

opposite : -5/2

reciprocal : -2/5

Now the new line goes through 5,-4

y = -2/5x - 2

is the new equation

now work through all of the answer to see which one is that equation.
