-3x-2y=10
-2y=3x+10
y=-3/2x -5
If you put x as a value of 0 you will get that the y-intercept will end up being -5
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let
x ----> the length of Zach's car
y ----> the length of Ginny's car
we know that
The sum of the lengths of both cars is 30 inches
so
----> equation A
Ginny's car is 2 more than 3 times the length of Zach's car
so
----> equation B
substitute equation B in equation A

We need to convert this equation to slope-intercept form first.
We can do that by solving for y.
x - 5y = 15
<em><u>Add 5y to both sides.</u></em>
x = 5y + 15
<em><u>Subtract 15 from both sides.</u></em>
x - 15 = 5y
<em><u>Divide both sides by 5.</u></em>
y = 1/5x - 3
We now know the slope is 1/5.
The slope of the line perpendicular to the line with a slope of 1/5 is -5.
The slope of a perpendicular line is the negative reciprocal of the original slope.
Using a graphing calculator, we know the y-intercept of the line that is perpendicular to the original line must have a y-intercept of -6 to run through the points (-2, 5).
The equation of the new line is y = -5x - 6.
