Answer:

The pitch (slope) of the roof is 0.25  or 25\%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The formula to calculate the slope  is equal to

m=\frac{y2-y1}{x2-x1}

where

In this problem we have

{y2-y1}=2.5\ m  -----> is the vertical distance (rises)

{x2-x1}=10\ m   -----> is the horizontal distance (run)

substitute the values

m=\frac{2.5}{10}=0.25

convert to percentage form

0.25*100=25\%

Write the point-slope form of the line that passes through (1, -5) and is parallel to a line with a slope of 1. Include all of y
aksik [14]
Y - y1 = m(x - x1)
slope(m) = 1...because a parallel line will have the same slope
(1,-5)...x1 = 1 and y1 = -5
now we sub
y - (-5) = 1(x - 1) =
y + 5 = 1(x - 1) <== u could leave that first " one " out if u want...

maxonik [38]

Answer:

  v = 5cos(73°)i +5sin(73°)j

Step-by-step explanation:

The components of the velocity vector are ...

  horizontal (i direction): 5·cos(73°)

  vertical (j direction): 5·sin(73°)

Then the velocity vector is the sum of these component vectors:

  v = 5cos(73°)i +5sin(73°)j

The answer for 10 2/3×31/8 rounded to the nearest whole number?
BigorU [14]
10 \frac{2}{3} ( \frac{31}{8}) can be changed into this equation:

\frac{32}{3}( \frac{31}{8}  )

The 32 and 8 have a common factor of 8 and can be simplified to become this equation:

\frac{4}{3} ( \frac{31}{1})

Now multiply across to get \frac{124}{3} which then simplifies to 41 \frac{1}{3} which as a decimal is 41.333 (repeating 3s). Nearest whole number is 41. 

Your answer is 41
