The answer is D) Seventh and eighth grade students at the school preferred an eagle mascot.
This is because both Tiger and Eagle had 40 votes, so it couldn't be A) or B), as they both had the same number of votes. It also couldn't be C) because more fifth and sixth grade students voted for tiger than eagle. It could only be D) as more seventh and eighth grade students DID actually vote for the eagle mascot rather than the tiger mascot.

Answer:
7x - 3y = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is
y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )
Rearrange 3x + 7y = 15 into this form
Subtract 3x from both sides
7y = - 3x + 15 ( divide all terms by 7 )
y = -
x +
← in slope- intercept form
with slope m = - 
Given a line with slope m the the slope of a line perpendicular to it is
= -
= -
=
, thus
y =
x + c ← is the partial equation of the line
To find c substitute (4, 9) into the partial equation
9 =
+ c ⇒ c - 
y =
x -
← in slope- intercept form
Multiply through by 3
3y = 7x - 1 ( subtract 3y from both sides )
0 = 7x - 3y - 1 ( add 1 to both sides )
1 = 7x - 3y, that is
7x - 3y = 1 ← in standard form
