Answer:

y-b/x= m/1 Triangle 1 is similar to triangle 2

y-b=mx  Multiply both sides by x.

y=mx+b Add b to both sides.

Answer:

m is the slope because it is affected by the value of x. They are multiplied together and therefore are affected by one another.

The b is the intercept because even when the x value is 0, the value of the y-intercept exists.

two vertical cliffs are on opposite sides of a 90 foot wide river. From point A at the top of the shorter cliff, the angle of el
Sedbober [7]
Answer: The tall cliff is 118.20 feet tall and the short cliff is 70.32 feet tall.

If you draw a picture with 2 cliffs and a river in the middle, you have find 2 right triangles. In each triangle the adjacent side to our known angle is the river of 90 feet. And the unknown side is the opposite leg.

Therefore, we can set up a tangent equation.

From the top of the short cliff to the top of the tall cliff, we can right and solve the following trig equation:

tan(28) = x /90
x = 47.88

From the top of the short cliff to the bottom, we can right and solve the following trip equation.

tan(38) = x/90
x = 70.32

The 70.32 is also the height of the short cliff. And adding the two answers together will give you the height of the tall cliff.

Describe in words the region of R3 reperesented by the equations or inequalities y2+z2=16
Anastasy [175]

Answer:

It represents an infinite cylinder of radius 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first thing to notice is that

y^2+z^2=4^2

<u>represents a circle of radius 4</u>, with its center in the origin of a plane yz, of cartesians coordinates.

Starting from here, we have to put the coordinate x, for all values of x, to complete the space R³. <em>This will enlarge this circle we had on the plane, to infinity</em> (positive and negative on the x-axis).

Finally, we have that this region is a cylinder of radius 4, with center in y=0 and z=0, and of infinite length in the x coordinates.

katrin [286]

Answer:

206 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

1 kilometre per hour = 0.621 mile per hour

332 km/hr to miles per hour

= 332 km/hr × 0.621 miles per hour

= 206.295 miles per hour

Approximately to the nearest whole number

= 206 miles per hour

A line had a slope of 2/3 and a y intercept at (0,14).What is the x intercept of the line?​
pychu [463]

Answer:

y=2/3x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of an equation in slope-intercept form is y=mx+b where m=slope and b=y-intercept.

Given a y-intercept of 14 and a slope of 2/3, we can plug into the variables and get the equation y=2/3x+14

The x-intercept would be when y=0, so plugging in y=0 to the equation gets us:

0=2/3x+14

-14=2/3x

21=x

So the x-intercept is 21
