Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume you mean passes through the point (-2,5) since -2 and 5 could mean a lot of different things

To find the perpendicular line's gradient, you would know that m1*m2 = -1

In this case m1 = 7, so m2 must be -1/7

Now we substitute the gradient into the equation

y = -1/7x + b

To find b, we substitute (-2,5) into the equation above

5 = -1/7*-2+b

5 = 2/7 + b

b = 33/7

Therefore the equation of the line is

y = -1/7x+33/7
