If you configure your GMail account correctly, it will reply via the other account's own SMTP servers. There will be no evidence of your private GMail account, even in the headers. (This is not the same thing as just configuring GMail to set a particular "From:" address.)

If both accounts are hosted by Google, then unless you're doing something stupid with one of the passwords they're pretty much equally secure.
If your business account has privileges within the app domain, you might actually get a security benefit by not being logged into it all the time. Kinda like not being logged in as root all the time.
In the "Accounts and Import" settings, you add an account and instead of choosing "Send through GMail (easier to set up)", choose "Send through <example.com>'s SMTP servers".
And then you need to enter the username, server, password, etc for the other account, which can even be another GMail account.
