Find the equation of the line through point (−5,5) and perpendicular to y=59x−4. Use a forward slash (i.e. \"/\") for fractions (e.g. 1/2 for 12).and the next problem is Find the equation of the line through point (−1,2) and perpendicular to x+3y=3. Use a forward slash (i.e. \"/\") for fractions (e.g. 1/2 for 12).
