Answer:

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation has slope -1/3.  Any line perpendicular to the given line has a slope which is the negative reciprocal of -1/3, which comes out to +3.

Use the point-slope formula y - k = m(x - h):

y - 2 = 3(x + 5)

A dairy needs 336 gallons of milk containing 6% butterfat. How many gallons each of milk containing 7% butterfat and milk contai
Arte-miy333 [17]

We need 84 gallons of 3% butterfat milk and (84 * 3) = 252 gallons of 7% butterfat milk to obtain 336 gallons of 6% butterfat milk.  

<h3>How to work with percentages?</h3>

Let x = number of gallons of 3% milk

Thus;

336 - x = number of gallons of 7% milk

Therefore;

0.03x + 0.07(336 - x) = 0.06(336)

0.03x + 23.52 - 0.07x = 20.16

-0.04x = -3.36

x = 84 gallons

We need 84 gallons of 3% butterfat milk and (84 * 3) = 252 gallons of 7% butterfat milk to obtain 336 gallons of 6% butterfat milk.
