The line is perpendicular to y= 1/4x + 5 and passes through the point (1,5). the equation of the line is y=

@Browbffangel13 has the right idea when finding the perpendicular slope to be m = -4, but the point (1,5) is not the y intercept. The y intercept only happens when x = 0.

y = mx+b

y = -4*x + b plug in the perpendicular slope m = -4

5 = -4*1 + b ... plug in the point (x,y) = (1,5)

5 = -4 + b

5+4 = -4+b+4 add 4 to both sides

9 = b

b = 9 which is the y intercept

Therefore, the answer is y = -4x+9
