OK so I start out at 3. How many places do I go up and left? There's no points, only a line...

Plus do you know how to graph parallel/perpendicular lines?

Perpendicular functions have a slope (the number that's multiplying the x) that multiplied by the other fuction's slope is equal to -1

Therefore, the perpendicular equation would be y=-1x/5 + b, with b depending on which point you want it to pass

 

Paralell lines have the same slope, but different independent term, again, it depends for which point it should pass

 

I don't know what's your trouble, find the equation you need and graph it. Or you can't find the equation you need?
