Answer:

cosθ= $\frac{ \sqrt{15} }{8}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please see attached picture for full solution.

In the 4th quadrant, the cosine of an angle is positive.

The opposite side takes the negative sign in -⅞ since it is below the x-axis. Likewise, we reject $x = - \sqrt{15}$ since x lies on the right side of the y axis.

Solve the system of equations. 3x + 4y = -36 y = 2x - 9 (-9, 0) (0, -9) {}

lbvjy [14]

Answer:

3x + 4y = -36

y = 2x - 9

3x + 4(2x - 9) = -36

3x + 8x - 36 = -36

11x - 36 = -36

11x = 0

x = 0

y = 2(0) - 9

y= 0-9

y = -9

(0, -9) is the answer
