Size of the room as depicted on the picture = 5 cm × 7 cm

Actual length of shorter side = 6 m

⇒ The size being shown at 5 cm is actually 6 m (or 600 cm)

⇒ In the picture, 1 cm represents \frac{600}{5} cm or 120 cm

Hence, the scale of the picture is 1 cm = 120 cm

⇒ Length of the longer side = 120 × 7 cm = 840 cm = 8.4 m

Write the slope-intercept form of the equation that passes through the point (-3, 5) and is perpendicular to the line y = 1/5x +
aleksley [76]

Answer:

<h2>y = -5x - 10</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\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\\\\=========================

\text{We have}\ y=\dfrac{1}{5}x+10\to m_1=\dfrac{1}{5}\\\\\text{Therefore}\ m_2=-\dfrac{1}{\frac{1}{5}}=-5.\\\\\text{Put the value of a slope and the coordinates of the point (-3, 5)}\\\text{to the equation}\ y=mx+b:\\\\5=-5(-3)+b\\5=15+b\qquad\text{subtract 15 from both sides}\\-10=b\to b=-10\\\\\text{Finally:}\\\\y=-5x-10
