Answer:

-1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

First find the slope of the line

y- 5x=5

Add 5x to each side

y = 5x+5

This is in slope intercept form

The slope is 5 and the y intercept is 5

We want a line that is perpendicular

The slope is the negative reciprocal

-1/ (5)

 = -1/5

The slope of the line that is perpendicular is -1/5
