Answer

$y=5/3*x+13/3$

Work Step by Step

has the point $(-2,1)$, perpendicular to $3x+5y=4$ $3x+5y=4$ $3x+5y-3x=4-3x$ $5y=-3x+4$ $5y/5=(-3x+4)/5$ $y= -3/5*x+4/5$ Perpendicular lines have slopes whose product is $-1$ $-3/5* x=-1$ $-3/5*x*-5/3=-1*-5/3$ $x = 5/3$ $y=mx+b$ $y=5/3*x+b$ $1=5/3*-2+b$ $1=-10/3+b$ $1+10/3=-10/3+b+10/3$ $13/3=b$ $y=mx+b$ $y=5/3*x+13/3$
