Answer:

y = (1/3)x + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The general structure form of a line in slope-intercept form is:

y = mx + b

In this form, "m" represents the slope and "b" represents the y-intercept.

The slope of a perpendicular line is the opposite-signed, reciprocal of the original line's slope. Therefore, if the slope of the original line is m = -3, the new slope is m = 1/3.

The y-intercept can be found by plugging the new slope and the values from the point (-3, 6) into the slope-intercept form equation.

m = 1/3

x = -3

y = 6

y = mx + b                                  <----- Slope-intercept form

6 = (-3)(1/3) + b                           <----- Insert values

6 = -1 + b                                    <----- Multiply -3 and 1/3

7 = b                                           <----- Add 1 to both sides

Now, that you have the slope and y-intercept, you can construct the equation of the perpendicular line.

y = (1/3)x + 7

A dairy needs 365 gallons of milk containing 7% butterfat. How many gallons each of milk containing 9% butterfat and milk contai
azamat

The amount in gallons of each milk containing 9% butterfat and milk containing 4% butterfat which must be used to obtain the desired 365 gallons are;

  • 219 gallons of 9% fat.
  • 146 gallons of 7% fat.

<h3>What quantity of each type of milk is required for the desired 365 gallon?</h3>

It follows from the task content that the quantity of each type of milk required to arrive at the targeted fat content and quantity of milk are to be determined.

Let x = quantity of 9% fat milk and

Let y = quantity of 4% fat milk

Therefore, by mass balance; we have;

x + y = 365.

Where; y = 365 - x.

Also, by fat balance; we have;

(9% × x) + (4% × y) = (7% × 365)

9x + 4y = 2555

Therefore, the two equations to be solved simultaneously by substituting y from the first equation into the second equation as follows;

9x + 4 (365 - x) = 2555

5x = 1095

x = 1095/5

x = 219 gallons.

Also, y = 365 - 219 = 146 gallons.

Which of the following equations is the result of completing the square on x^2 - 6x - 9 = 0?
lina2011 [118]
X² - 6x - 9 = 0
x² - 3x - 3x - 9 = 0
x (x-3) -3(x + 3) = 0
(x - 3)² = 0

In short, Your Answer would be Option A

Hope this helps!
