Answer:
y = 2x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
A line y = ax + b that is perpendicular to the other line y = (-1/2)x + 7
=> The product of 2 slopes of these 2 lines must be -1
=> a x (-1/2) = -1
=> a = 2
This line passes (2, 5) => 5 = 2*2 + b => 5 = 4 + b => b = 1
=> The equation of the line: y = 2x + 1
Hope this helps!
