Answer: 15

Explanation:

First step is to find the slope of the line given

y = -x - 2

y = mx + c where m is the slope of the line so the slope of the line is -1

If 2 lines are perpendicular to one another, the product of the slopes is -1 so the slope of the perpendicular line is -1/-1 = 1

y = 1x + c or y = x + c

As the line passes through the coordinate (-5,10), we can substitute the x and y value of the coordinates into the equation

10 = -5 + c

c = 15

So the equation of the line is y = x + 15
