Answer:

y = 2/5x

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines are lines which have negative reciprocal slopes of each other.

The line y = -5/2 x + 2 has slope -5/2. Therefore its perpendicular slope will be 2/5.

The equation can cross anywhere on the y-axis for its y-intercept since no specific point is given. Here I chose (0,0).

y = 2/5x
