Answer:

y = 3x +8

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of the given line is -1/3. The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite of the reciprocal of that: -1/(-1/3) = 3.

Then, in point-slope form, the equation of the line is ...

... y - k = m(x - h) . . . . . for slope m through point (h, k)

... y - 5 = 3(x -(-1)) . . . . . for line of slope 3 through (-1, 5)

... y = 3x +8 . . . . . . . . . simplify
