Solution

The correct option is C 5x+7y+1=0
L1:5x+7y+1=0
L2:3x+11y7=0
L3:7x+5y+5
We find to L4
Equation of line through the intersection of lines L1 and L2
(5x+7y+1)+k(3x+11y7) -------- (1)
(3+5k)x+(11+7k)y7+k=0
Slope =3+5k11+7k
Also perpendicular to
the line L3
y=75x+1
Whose slope is 75
Therefore slope of L4=57 (m3=1m4)
this implies :
(3+5k11+7k)=57
k=0
Put in first
Hence the required line
5x+7y+1=0
