The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 3/5. The slope of the perpendicular line will be the negative reciprocal of that: -1/(3/5) = -5/3.
The point-slope form of the equation for a line of slope m through point (h, k) can be written ...
... y = m(x -h) +k
For your point and the slope found above, this becomes
... y = (-5/3)(x -15) -5
When x=0, this is
... y = (-5/3)(-15) -5 = 20
The y-intercept is 20.

Answer:more people will be living in Africa than in Asia sometime around 2120
Step-by-step explanation:
If we were to foil
after experieence
we know
ax²+bx+c=0
and
in form
(ax+b)(cx+d)=0
if we expand it, we get
acx²+bcx+adx+bd=0
or
(ac)x²+(bc+ad)x+(bd)=0
compare to
ax²+bx+c=0
we notice that the middle terms (x terms) are
b=(bc+ad)
so
in form
(2x-1)(1x+5)
b=bc+ad=(-1*1+2*5)=-1+10=9
b=9
or you could just expand it
