What is the equation of a vertical line that has an x-intercept of -2?

1 answer:

4 0

As the line is vertical, it has same points for x - coordinates. And it never changes for whole line.
We know, slope (m) = y2 - y1 / x2 - x1
As x2-x1 = 0 [ x2=x1 ]

m = y2-y1 / 0
m = undefined

So, y = mx + c
y = c

In short, Your Answer would be y = c

Hope this helps!

To find the distance across the river, the given diagram is laid out. what is the distance rounded to the nearest meter?

kati45 [8]

Given:

Angle A = 18.6°

Angle B = 93°

Length of side AB = 646 meters

To find:

the distance across the river, distance between BC

Steps:

Since we know the measure of 2 angles of a triangle we can find the measure of the third angle.

18.6° + 93° + ∠C = 180°

111.6° + ∠C = 180°

∠C = 180° - 111.6°

∠C = 68.4°

Therefore the measure of angle C is 68.4°.

now we can use the law of Sines,

$\frac{BC}{sinA}=\frac{AB}{SinC}$

$\frac{BC}{sin(18.6)}= \frac{646}{sin(68.4)}$

$BC[sin(68.4)] = 646 [sin(18.6)]$

$BC = \frac{646*sin(18.6)}{sin(68.4)}$

$BC = \frac{646 * 0.3190}{0.9298}$

$BC = 221.63$

$BC = 222$ meters

Therefore, the distance across the river is 222 meters.

Happy to help :)

Jonathan is making his favorite pasta dish. He serves his mom 1/12 of the pot of pasta and his brother 1/6 of the pot. How much

Lerok [7]

1/6 also is 2/12. So, there is 9/12 of the pasta left.

two passenger train traveling in opposite directions meet and pass each other. Each train is 1/18 miles long and is traveling at

xz_007 [3.2K]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

5 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose the front parts of the trains meet at point A. Since both are the same length and traveling the same speed, each will pass point A in time ...

time = distance/speed

time = (1/18 mi)/(40 mi/h) = (1/720 h) × (3600 s)/(1 h) = 5 s

That is, the rear part of each train will be at point A 5 seconds after the front part.

The rear parts will pass each other 5 seconds after the front parts meet.
