For this case we have that by definition, the equation of a line in the slope-intersection form is given by:
Where:
m: It's the slope
b: It is the cut-off point with the y axis
On the other hand we have that if two lines are perpendicular, then the product of their slopes is -1. So:
The given line is:
So we have:
We find
So, a line perpendicular to the one given is of the form:
We substitute the given point to find "b":
Finally we have:
In point-slope form we have:

First off, let's convert the percentages to decimal format, so our 77% turns to 77/100 or 0.77, and our 55% turns to 55/100 or 0.55 and so on
now, the sum of both salines, must add up to the 77% mixture, let's say is "y"
so, 11 + 4 = y, and whatever the concentration level is, must also sum up to the mixture's concentration of 77%
anyway thus
solve for "x"

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
multiply the numerator/denominator of the first fraction by (x - 4)
multiply the numerator/denominator of the second fraction by (x + 2)
this ensures that the fractions have a common denominator
-
= -
← subtract numerators leaving the common denominator
