4 1/2 is the exact answer. 5 is the estimate.
B is the answer to this question
Slope intercept form
y = mx+b
y = -7x + 9
m = -7
Answer:
58.1 degrees
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the following
JK = 9.4miles (towards south) negative y axis
If the move 15.1 miles towards east (that will be towards the positive x axis)
Using the SOH CAH TOA identity
opposite= 15.1 miles(side facing m<J)
adjacent= JK = 9.4miles
tan theta = opposite/adjacent
tan m<J = 15.1/9.4
tan m<J = 1.6063
m<J = arctan (1.6063)
m<J = 58.09 degrees
Hence the measure of m<J to the nearest tenth is 58.1 degrees
