How many degrees is the angle below?

30 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

the line (not at the 0) is what you measure from. Because the angle is visibly acute, we know that it must be less than 90 degrees, therefore the angle cannot be 150 degrees but 30 degrees (from the lower line)

y = 5x + 17

step-by-step explanation:

a perpendicular line will be the opposite reciprocal slope of the given equation.   the slope given is -1/5 so the opposite reciprocal is 5

find b:

7 = 5 (-2) + b

7 = -10 + b

17 = b

write equation

y = 5x + 17
