You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Slope of line perpendicular to 2x%2B5y-3=0 would be m=5%2F2;

y-intercept of 2x%2B3y%2B6=0
3y=-2x-6
y=-2x%2F3-6%2F3
y=-2x%2F3-2
The point (0,-2);

The line asked is highlight%28y=%285%2F2%29x-2%29, perpendicular to first given equation, same y-intercept as the second given equation.
