Question 1148253: Find an equation of the line in the standard form that passes through the point P (-1,-2) and parallel to line 2x+5y=1 and perpendicular to the line y = 2x-4 Answer by greenestamps(13200) (Show Source):
If the line is to be parallel to the first given line and perpendicular to the second, then those given first and second lines must be perpendicular -- but they are not.
