Answer:

y = -1/3 x

Step-by-step explanation:

what is the slope intercept form for x+3y=0

Slope intercept form solves for y:

x + 3y = 0

subtract x from both sides:

x + 3y - x = 0 - x

3y = -x

divide both sides by 3:

3y/3 = -x/3

y = -1/3 x

Given sin A = 12/13 and that angle A is in Quadrant 1,

UkoKoshka [18]

We have been given that $\text{sin}(A)=\frac{12}{13}$ and angle A is in quadrant 1. We are asked to find the exact value of $\text{cot}(A)$ in simplest radical form.

We know that sine relates opposite side of right triangle with hypotenuse.

$\text{sin}=\frac{\text{Opposite}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}$

This means that opposite side is 12 units and hypotenuse is 13 units.

We know that cotangent relates adjacent side of right triangle with adjacent side.

$\text{cot}=\frac{\text{Adjacent}}{\text{Opposite}}$

Now we will find adjacent side using Pythagoras theorem as:

$\text{Adjacent}^2=\text{Hypotenuse}^2-\text{Oppoiste}^2$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=13^2-12^2$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=169-144$

$\text{Adjacent}^2=25$

Let us take positive square root on both sides:

$\sqrt{\text{Adjacent}^2}=\sqrt{25}$

$\text{Adjacent}=5$

Therefore, adjacent side of angle A is 5 units.

$\text{cot}(A)=\frac{5}{12}$

Therefore, the exact value of cot A is $\frac{5}{12}$ .

At an important meet, Allyson won the women's 100 meters in 12.24 seconds. Find her average rate.

otez555 [7]

The rate is 8.17 meters per second

Further explanation:

In order to find the rate we have to divide the distance covered by the woman by the time she covered it in.

Given

$Distance=d=100\ meters\\Time=t=12.24\ sec\\So,\\Rate=\frac{d}{t}\\=\frac{100}{12.24}\\=8.17\ ms^{-1}$

The rate is 8.17 meters per second
