y = 5x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the coordinate points (0,1) and (5,0)

First, get the slope

Slope m =(0-1)/5-0

m = -1/5

Since the required line is perpendicular, then the required slope is;

M = -1/(-1/5)

M = 5

Since 1the y intecept id (0,1) i.e. 1

Required equation is y = mx+b

y = 5x + 1

This gives the required equation

Note that the coordinate (0,1) was used instead os (0,0)

expression #3 is not equivalent. the others are.
