first: put your first point at -8
second: then from the point at -8, go up three times, and over to your right one time
now do that however many times you need to
explanation:
- the y-intercept is the initial value which is -8. the line must pass through -8 so you would start your line at -8
- your slope is 3x. slope is
so you rise 3 time and over 1 time
Taking the tangent of the 44° angle, knowing tan = opp/adj, we can do: tan 44° = x/140 x = 140 tan 44° x approx = 140 * 0.9657 = 135.198 Remembering to add in the 4 feet, we get that: The pole is approx 135.198 + 4 feet tall, aka 139.198 ft This makes intuitive sense because the angle
The answer is 3. You do y2-y1 over x2-x1
Answer:
x = 18
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both right triangles are similar, therefore:

Cross multiply




Subtract 780 from both sides





x + 23 = 0
x = -23
Or
2x - 36 = 0
2x = 36
x = 18
