Answer:

[tex]\large\boxed{y=3x-11}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]\text{Let}\\\\k:y=m_1x+b_1\\\\l:y=m_2x+b_2\\\\l\ \perp\ k\iff m_1m_2=-1\to m_2=-\dfrac{1}{m_1}\\\\l\ \parallel\ k\iff m_1=m_2\\\\===================================\\\\y=3x-4\to m_1=3\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=3.\\\\\text{We have the equation:}\ y=3x+b.\\\\\text{Put the coorsdinates of the point (2, -5) to the equation of the line}\\\\-5=3(2)+b\\-5=6+b\qquad\text{subtract 6 from both sides}\\-11=b\to b=-11[/tex]
