Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the given points is the y-intercept. That means you can write the equation in slope-intercept form once you have found the slope.
m = slope = (change in y)/(change in x) = (y2 -y1)/(x2 -x1)
= (-3 -(-2))/(0 -(-3)) = -1/3
The slope-intercept form for slope m and intercept b is ...
y = mx +b
For slope -1/3 and intercept -3, the equation is ...
y = -1/3x -3

Answer:
From the photo above i interpreted the question and drew a triangle to make it easier to solve
Tan is used to solve the question as we were given opposite (as height of the cliff) and to find Adjacent ( the distance between the foot of the cliff to the boat)
Tan θ =Opp/Adj
Tan 22°=15/a
Cross Multiply
aTanθ=15°
Divide both sides by Tan 22
aTan22/Tan22 = 15/Tan 22
a = 15/Tan 22°
a = 37.13 m
Therefore the distance between the foot of the cliff to the boat is 37.13 metres
