How do you do this in y=mx+b form?!

Answer:
The answer to your question is: y = 3/5 x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Data
5x + 3y = 15
A (5, 1)
Process
find the slope
5x + 3y = 15
3y = - 5x + 15
y = -(5/3) x + (15/3)
y = -(5/3) x + 5
Slope = m = -(5/3) but the lines are perpendicular then:
m = 3/5
New equation : (y - y1) = m(x - x1)
(y - 1) = 3/5 ( x - 5)
y - 1 = 3/5 x - 15/5
y = 3/5 x - 3 + 1
y = 3/5 x - 2
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
eq.of any line perpendicular to 5x+3y=15 is
3x-5y=c
because it passes through (5,1)
3*5-5*1=c
c=15-5=10
reqd. eq. is 3x-5y=10
5 y=3x-10
y=3/5 x-2
