Answer:

Did the question get cut off?

a = -(1/5)

b = 1

c = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

y = x/5 may be rewritten as y = (1/5)x

y = (1/5)x

y - (1/5)x = 0

- (1/5)x + y + 0 = 0

ax + by + c = 0

a = -(1/5)

b = 1

c = 0

Alyssa took a math test with 20 questions and she answered 16 questions correctly. In order get an A, she needs to answer at lea

ElenaW [278]

A. Alyssa did not get an A on the math test but rather a B- due to only getting 16 out of the 20 problems right. This can be found out by dividing the amount correct over the total amount of problems.

B. In order for Alyssa to get an A or 90% on her math test she would have had to get two more questions right to have a score of 18 out of 20.

C. In order to figure this question out you have to think that with every incorrect answer that Jessie answered she got three correct along with the one incorrect. By going with that information it can be figured that Jessie's score is 15 correct answers and 5 incorrect information if you go by the ratio 3:1 then go up tell the sides equal up to a total of 20 after being added. So Jessie's score again was 15 out of 20.

Anon25 [30]

8x + 4 = 5x - 11

Subtract 5x from both sides:
3x + 4 = -11

Subtract 4 from both sides:
3x = -15

Divide both sides by 3:
x = -5

Answer : x = -5

I need help finding if it’s either SOH, CAH or TOA and the indicated side of the triangle, thank you!

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{IJ \approx 2.01}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find the side mentioned (IJ), we need to use SOH CAH TOA.

SOH CAH TOA is an acronym to help us remember what sin, cos, and tan mean. It stands for:

Sin = Opposite / Hypotenuse

Cosine = Adjacent / Hypotenuse

Tan = Opposite / Adjacent

Since we know the measure of angle K (42) and we know one of the sides, we can use this to find the missing length.

Since the side given to us is the hypotenuse, and we're looking for the side opposite of the angle (IJ), the only possible one to use would be SIN as it includes Opposite and Hypotenuse.

Our equation is now this: $\text{sin(42)} = \frac{x}{3}$
