$y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}$

Further explanation:

We have to find the equation of the line first to graph the line.

The general form of slope-intercept form of equation of line is:

$y=mx+b$

Given

$m=-\frac{2}{5}$

Putting the value of slope in the equation

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x+b$

To find the value of b, putting the point (-3,5) in equation

$5=-\frac{2}{5}(-3)+b\\5=\frac{6}{5}+b\\5-\frac{6}{5}+b\\b=\frac{25-6}{5}\\b=\frac{19}{5}$

Putting the values of b and m

$y=-\frac{2}{5}x+\frac{19}{5}$

The graph is made by using online graphing tool Desmos.

Answer:

20 ounces of milk and 3 ounces of cheddar cheese

30 ounces of milk and 4 ounces of cheddar cheese

40 ounces of milk and 5 ounces of cheddar cheese

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the inequality $25x+200y\geq 1000$

Here, x denotes ounces of whole milk and y denotes ounces of cheddar cheese.

To write: three different amounts of milk and cheese that a person could consume to meet the recommendation

Solution:

Take $x=20,y=3$

$25(20)+200(3)\geq 1000\\500+600\geq 1000\\1100\geq 1000$

So, $x=20,y=3$ satisfy the inequality $25x+200y\geq 1000$

Take $x=30,y=4$

$25(30)+200(4)\geq 1000\\750+800\geq 1000\\1550\geq 1000$

So, $x=30,y=4$ satisfy the inequality $25x+200y\geq 1000$

Take $x=40,y=5$

$25(40)+200(5)\geq 1000\\1000+1000\geq 1000\\2000\geq 1000$

So, $x=40,y=5$ satisfy the inequality $25x+200y\geq 1000$

Therefore,

three different amounts of milk and cheese that a person could consume to meet the recommendation are as follows:

20 ounces of milk and 3 ounces of cheddar cheese

30 ounces of milk and 4 ounces of cheddar cheese

40 ounces of milk and 5 ounces of cheddar cheese
