Marcella won't be able to win the competition because the length of the rope is less than 162 feet.

How to find the sides of a right angle triangle?

The situation forms a right angle triangle.

The kite released rope is the hypotenuse side of the triangle formed.

The opposite side of the triangle is the height of the kite from the ground.

Therefore,

sin 28 = opposite / hypotenuse

sin 28 = 75 / h

h = 75 / sin 28

h = 75 / 0.46947156278

h = 159.754085116

h ≈ 160 feet

Therefore, she won't be able to win the competition because the length of the rope is less than 162 feet.

Which of the following is the equation of a line parallel to the line y = 3x + 2,
earnstyle [38]

Answer:

B

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 )

y = 3x + 2 is in this form with slope m = 3

• Parallel lines have equal slopes, hence

y = 3x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

To find c substitute (10, 1) into the partial equation

1 = 30 + c ⇒ c = 1 - 30 = - 29

y = 3x - 29 ← in slope- intercept form

Subtract y from both sides

0 = 3x - y - 29 ( add 29 to both sides )

29 = 3x - y, thus

3x - y = 29 ← in standard form → B

What is the inverse of the relation? <br> {(-4,1), (-4,3), (0,-8), (8,-9)}
BigorU [14]

The inverse relation would be each of these ordered pairs switched.

{(1, -4), (3, -4), (-8, 0), (-9, 8)}

This is because when you create an inverse equation, all of the inputs become outputs and all of the outputs become inputs. Therefore, the ordered pairs simply switch.
