Correct answer: D

  1. Initial line angle

A line makes an angle of 30∘30^\circ30∘ with the positive xxx-axis. So its inclination is θ=30∘.\theta = 30^\circ.θ=30∘.

  1. Rotate clockwise by 15∘15^\circ15∘

Clockwise rotation decreases the angle, so the new inclination is θ′=30∘−15∘=15∘.\theta' = 30^\circ - 15^\circ = 15^\circ.θ′=30∘−15∘=15∘.

  1. Slope of the new line

The slope is m=tan⁡15∘.m = \tan 15^\circ.m=tan15∘. Using the standard value, tan⁡15∘=2−3.\tan 15^\circ = 2-\sqrt{3}.tan15∘=2−3​.

So the new line passes through (9,0)(9,0)(9,0) with slope 2−32-\sqrt{3}2−3​.

  1. Equation using point-slope form

Using point (9,0)(9,0)(9,0): y−0=(2−3)(x−9).y-0=(2-\sqrt{3})(x-9).y−0=(2−3​)(x−9). Thus, y=(2−3)(x−9).y=(2-\sqrt{3})(x-9).y=(2−3​)(x−9).

  1. Rearrange to match options

Expand: y=(2−3)x−9(2−3).y=(2-\sqrt{3})x-9(2-\sqrt{3}).y=(2−3​)x−9(2−3​). Bring terms together: y−(2−3)x=−9(2−3).y-(2-\sqrt{3})x=-9(2-\sqrt{3}).y−(2−3​)x=−9(2−3​).

Now divide by −(2−3)-(2-\sqrt{3})−(2−3​): x+y3−2=9.x+\frac{y}{\sqrt{3}-2}=9.x+3​−2y​=9.

Since 12−3=2+3,13−2=−(2+3),\frac{1}{2-\sqrt{3}}=2+\sqrt{3}, \quad \frac{1}{\sqrt{3}-2}=-(2+\sqrt{3}),2−3​1​=2+3​,3​−21​=−(2+3​), this form directly matches y3−2+x=9.\frac{y}{\sqrt{3}-2}+x=9.3​−2y​+x=9.

  1. Compare with options

This is exactly Option D.

Therefore, the required equation is y3−2+x=9.\boxed{\frac{y}{\sqrt{3}-2}+x=9}. 3​−2y​+x=9​.
