bearing in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, so


\bf \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{10em}\stackrel{slope}{y=\stackrel{\downarrow }{-\cfrac{1}{3}}x-1} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill


\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{1}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{1}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{3}{1}\implies 3}}


so we're really looking for a line whose slope is 3 and runs through (1,5)


\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies 3 \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-5=3(x-1) \\\\\\ y-5=3x-3\implies y=3x+2

zvonat [6]
The significant components, the radius and the height, are in inches and feet respectively, you'd need to convert them both to the same unit, whichever it may be, meters or feet or inches or millimeters, so long is the same, then use the volume of a cylinder equation to get it.
