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.

A boy purchased(bought) a party length sandwich 59 in long. He wants to cut it into three pieces so that the middle piece is 6in
Leviafan [203]
Ok so let's start with what we know- the shortest piece is 8 inches so there's one length... then the middle piece is 6 inches longer than the shortest (6+ 8) so the middle piece would be 14 inches long. To find the last piece we can add up the other two pieces we know (14+8) which would be 22 and subtract that from how long the whole sandwich is (59-22) which would be 37 inches long. So in the end he shortest piece would be 8 inches, the middle 14 inches and the longest 37 inches.
