That angle would be 35 degrees.

Complementary angles equal 90 degrees. So you can create an equation with x as the angle and its complement being x + 20. Set that equal to 90 and solve.

What is the equation in slope-intercept from of the line that passes through the points (-4,47) and (2,-16

Harrizon [31]

Answer:

<h3>Y=-21/2x+5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>SLOPE FORMULA:</em></u>

y₂-y₁/x₂-x₁=rise/run

<u><em>SLOPE-INTERCEPT FORM:</em></u>

y=mx+b

m represents the slope.

b represents the y-intercept.

y₂=(-16)

y₁=47

x₂=2

y₁=(-4)

Solve.

$\displaystyle \mathsf{\frac{(-16)-47}{2-(-4)}=\frac{21}{6}=\frac{21}{2}=-\frac{21}{2} }}$

Furthermore, the y-intercept is 5.

y=-21/2x+5

The correct answer is y=-21/2x+5.
