keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmmm what's the slope of that line above anyway,

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{1}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-1})\qquad (\stackrel{x_2}{4}~,~\stackrel{y_2}{2}) ~\hfill \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies \cfrac{\stackrel{rise} {\stackrel{y_2}{2}-\stackrel{y1}{(-1)}}}{\underset{run} {\underset{x_2}{4}-\underset{x_1}{1}}}\implies \cfrac{2+1}{3}\implies 1 \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

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

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -1 and runs through (2,5)

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{2}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{5})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -1 \\\\\\ \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-\stackrel{y_1}{5}=\stackrel{m}{-1}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{2}) \\\\\\ y-5=-x+2\implies y=-x+7

The value of 5 in 3.5 times the value of the 5 in 15 is the sentence that compares correctly with the values.

<h3>What is arithmetic?</h3>

Mathematical arithmetic is the study of the properties of the standard operations on numbers, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, exponentiation, and root extraction. One of the branches of mathematics, 1a, deals with the application of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to nonnegative real numbers, sometimes including transfinite cardinals.

Given Data

Here, 5 in 15.2 is 1/10 times to 3.5.

The 5 in 3.5 is therefore \frac{1}{10} times the 5 in 15.2, and likewise.

The value of 5 in 3.5 times the value of the 5 in 15 is the sentence that compares correctly with the values.
