The point-slope form of the equation for a line can be written as

... y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . . for a line with slope m through point (h, k)

Your function gives

... f'(h) = m

... f(h) = k

a) The tangent line is then

... y = 5(x -2) +3

b) The normal line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of that of the tangent line.

... y = (-1/5)(x -2) +3

_____

You asked for "an equation." That's what is provided above. Each can be rearranged to whatever form you like.

In standard form, the tangent line's equation is 5x -y = 7. The normal line's equation is x +5y = 17.
