Answer:
y = -1/5 x + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 5x - 4
m = 5
Slope of perpendicular = -1/5
Equation of perpendicular:
y = mx + b
y = -1/5 x + b
Use point (15, -1) for x and y, and solve for b.
-1 = -1/5(15) + b
-1 = -3 + b
b = 2

well you know that the yellow rope is 18' shorter then the white rope X 2,
so you would take 101/2 feet and add 18 inches, then you would need to divide that by two to get how long the white one is.
10 1/2 feet + 18 inches = 12 feet
12 feet divided by 2 is 6 feet
