You're given the slope of the line and a point thru which the line passes.  So it makes sense to use the point-slope form of the equation of a straight line:  if the point is (a,b) and the slope is m, then 

y-b=m(x-a).  You'd then solve this for y to obtain the equation in slope-intercept form.

On the other hand, if you're asked to write the equation in slope-intercept form, starting with the general form of this equation may be faster:  y=mx+b.

Substitute the given values for x and y (which are 25 and -9) and m (which is (2/5).  Solve the resulting equation for b (the y-intercept).

Then write the finished equation:  y=( ? )x + b, where b is the y-intercept you've just found.

Answer:

The side s has a length of 4 and side q has a length of 4\sqrt{3} ⇒ F

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 30°-60°-90° triangle, there is a ratio between its sides

side opp (30°) : side opp (60°) : hypotenuse

       1               :         \sqrt{3}            :        2

In the given triangle

∵ The side opposite to 30° is s

∵ The side opposite to 60° is q

∵ The hypotenuse is 8

→ Use the ratio above to find the lengths of s and q

side opp (30°) : side opp (60°) : hypotenuse

       1               :         \sqrt{3}            :        2

       s               :          q             :        8

→ By using cross multiplication

∵ s × 2 = 1 × 8

∴ 2s = 8

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ s = 4

∴ The length of s is 4

∵ q × 2 = \sqrt{3} × 8

∴ 2q = 8\sqrt{3}

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ q = 4\sqrt{3}

∴ The length of q is 4\sqrt{3}

What is the answer to 11x+4+51+2x+8=180
Digiron [165]
Hi,

Work:

Equation;

11x + 4 + 51 + 2x + 8 = 180

Collect like terms and calculate sum of positive numbers.

13x + 63 = 180

Move constant +63 to the right side and change its sign.

13x = 180 - 63

Subtract numbers.

13x = 117

Divide both sides of equation with 13.

x = 9


Hope this helps.

A grocer has 2 types of tea, one for sells for $8.00 per pound and the other for $6.00. How many pounds of each kind must he use
fiasKO [112]
Equation::
value + value = value
80x + 60(50-x) = 74*50
----
80x + 60*50 - 60x = 74*50
----
20x = 14*50
x = 35 lbs (amt. of 80 cent tea to use)
50-x = 15 lbs (amt. of 60 cent tean to use)
