Cosα=x/L

x=Lcosα, we are told the ladder is 10ft and α=42.5 so

x=10cos42.5° ft

x≈7.37 ft (to nearest hundredth of a foot)

Write an equation of the line that passes through the given points and is parallel to the given line 1. (4,1);y=-2x+7 2. (0,6);y
vovikov84 [41]

Answer:

1. The equation would be y = -2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the line parallel going through the given point, first note that parallel lines have the same slope. This means that in #1, we have a slope of -2 in the original line, therefore the parallel line will also have a slope of -2. Now we can use this and the given point to find the line using point-slope form.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 1 = -2(x - 4)

y - 1 = -2x + 8

y = -2x + 9

Describe how to compare the two ratios 5:8 to 7:9. Tell each step to set up the ratios, then explain what to do to be able to co
Lera25 [3.4K]

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio's can be expressed as fractions and you may compare those.

  • 5 : 8 = 5/8
  • 7 : 9 = 7/9

In order to compare fractions you need to bring them into equal denominator.

8 and 9 have LCM of 8*9 = 72 since they have no common factors.

<u>The equivalent fractions with common denominator are:</u>

  • 5/8 = 9*5/(9*8) = 45/72
  • 7/9 = 8*7/(8*9) = 56/72

<u>Now we can compare the fractions:</u>

  • 45/72 < 56/72, since 45 < 56
