Answer:

The answer is x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the equation, we need to know about vertical line equations.

In general, a line equation has the form:

y=mx+n

Where "y" is the dependent variable, "x" is the independent variable, "m" is the slope of the line and "n" is the value where the line cuts the "y" axis.

A vertical line, x only takes one value. Thus, the equation for a vertical line is x = a, where a is the value that x takes.

So for the coordinate (-5,-1), the vertical line has to pass through the "x" value, that it is -5, therefore the equation of a vertical line passing through the point (-5,-1) is:

x=-5

NEED HELP ASAPInstructions: Find the length of the missing sides. Round your answers to the
Pie

Answer:

x = 9.4

y = 17.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The figure

Required: Find x and y

The relationship between length x, length 15 and angle 32 is as follows:

tan \theta = \frac{opp}{adj}

So, we have:

tan\ 32= \frac{x}{15}

Cross multiply:

x =15*tan\ 32

x = 15 * 0.6248693519

x = 9.3730402785

x = 9.4 --- approximated

Similarly:

The relationship between length y, length 15 and angle 32 is as follows:

cos \theta = \frac{adj}{hyp}

So, we have:

cos\ 32= \frac{15}{y}

Cross Multiply:

y * cos\ 32= 15

Solve for y

y = \frac{15}{cos\ 32}

y = \frac{15}{0.84804809615}

y = 17.6876760506

y = 17.7 --- approximated

On a road map, the locations A, B and C are collinear. Location C divides the road from location A to B, such that AC:CB = 1:2.
koban [17]

Answer:

C. (-1,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Since C internally divides AB in the ratio AC/CB = 1/2 = m/n where m = 1 and n = 2, we use the formula for internal division.

Let A = (x₁, y₁) = (5, 16), B = (x₂, y₂) and C = (x, y) = (3, 10)

So x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

Substituting the values of the coordinates, we have

x = (mx₂ + nx₁)/(m + n)

3 = (1 × x₂ + 2 × 5)/(2 + 1)

3 = (x₂ + 10)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

9 = x₂ + 10

x₂ = 9 - 10

x₂ = -1

y = (my₂ + ny₁)/(m + n)

10 = (1 × y₂ + 2 × 16)/(2 + 1)

10 = (x₂ + 32)/3

multiplying through by 3, we have

30 = y₂ + 32

y₂ = 30 - 32

y₂ = -2

So, the coordinates of B are (-1, -2)
