Answer:
<h2>x = -5</h2><h2>y = -2</h2>Step-by-step explanation:
The slope of the given line is the coefficient of x, 3/5. The slope of the perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of that:
... m = -1/(3/5) = -5/3
The point-slope form of the equation of a line can be written as
... y = m(x -h) +k . . . . .for slope m and point (h, k)
Using the values we are given for the perpendicular line, its equation is
... y = (-5/3)(x -15) -5
Simplifying gives
... y = (-5/3)x +20
The y-intercept of the perpendicular line is 20.
