Answer:
-4
Step-by-step explanation:
This looks like point-slope form, which I find personally hideous. Let's change it to slope-intercept form to ease my conscience. (remember that slope-intercept form is y=mx+b, where m=slope and b=y-intercept!)
y - 5 = -4(x-8)
y - 5 = -4x + 32
y = -4x + 37
It's in slope-intercept form now! And -4 looks to be our m.
<u>So the slope is -4.</u>
Answer:
b 24/25
Step-by-step explanation:
SOHCAHTOA
tan is Opposite over Adjacent sides of the triangle from the perspective of angle A
so the opposite side was 24 and the adjacent side was 25
so the answer is 24/25 aka B
Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
18:24 (comparing the same sides for the similar shapes; 18 and 24) when simplified down is equal to 3:4.
Using this 3:4 scale factor we can find the missing side x.
Solving for x :
× 16 = 12
x = 12
OR: Set up a proportion:
× 
<em>cross-multiply</em>
16 × 18 = 288
24 × x = 24x
288 = 24x
x = 12
