Find the equation of the line through the intersection of 5x-3y-1=0 and 2x+3y-23=0 and

a)perpendicular to line whose equation is 5x-3y-1=0

b) parallel to the line 4x+5y-7=0

Point of intersection of  5x-3y-1=0 and 2x+3y-23=0 is (24/7 , 113/21 )

(a) : Perpendicular to 5x - 3y =1 will be -3x -5y = D
  -3(247) -5(11321) =DD = -78121Thus, reqd line is : 3x + 5y = 78121
(b) Line parallel to  4x + 5y =7 will be 4x + 5y = E
4(247) +5(11321) =EE = 85321Reqd. Line is 4x+5y=85321
