Answer:

y = 5x - 25

Explanation:

Using the equation y=mx+b to determine the function. The line must be perpendicular, so the m (slope) value must be the opposite reciprocal of the given equation, which is 5. Then you have to solve the equation using the given point to find b.

10 = 5 * (7) + b

10 = 35 + b

-25 = b

So final equation is y = 5x - 25.
