Answer:

The slope of the line perpendicular to 8x - 6y = -4 = -3/4

All lines parallel to y = 4x/ 3 - 2/3 have thesame slope of 4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope of a line Parallel or perpendicular to another, we should bear in mind that:

When two lines are parallel, they have an equal slope.

Also, when two lines are perpendicular, they have opposite signs and they are reciprocals of each other.

From the question:

8x - 6y = -4

Let's rearrange the equation to have in the form of:

y = mx + c.

Where m= slope

C = intercept.

Therefore, for PERPENDICULAR

6y = 8x - 4.

y = 8x/6 - 4/6

y = 4x/3 - 2/3

SLOPE = 4/3

To get tge slope perpendicular to the line y = 4x/3 - 2/3;

Lets get the reciprocal and the opposite sign.

Slope = 4/3

Perpendicular slope = - 1/ m

= -3/4

Therefore, the slope of the line perpendicular to = -3/4

PARALLEL:

6y = 8x - 4.

y = 8x/ 6 - 4/6

y = 4x/ 3 - 2/3

SLOPE = 4/3.

Therefore, all lines parallel to y = 4x/ 3 - 2/3 have thesame slope of 4/3

What is the slope of the line passing through the points (−3, −5) and (−1, −6)
inessss [21]

slope = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m= (-6--5)/(-1--3)

m = (-6+5)/(-1+3)

m=-1/2

Imagine that you are standing at the top of a cliff that is 1,500 feet above sea level. You see ship A, and your eyes make an an
kati45 [8]
Answer: option A. 30 °.

Explanation:

1) Draw this triangle: Eyes - Ship A - height of the cliff:

The angle of the vertix where the eyes are is: 90° - depreesion angle = 90° - 60° = 30°.

2) opossite leg = horizontal distance to the ship A = x

3) adjacent leg = height of the cliff = 1500 feet

4) tan(30°) = x / 1500 feet => x = 1500 tan(30°) = 1500 √3 / 3 = 500√3

5) Draw the triangle of the eyes - ship B - hieght of the cliff

6) The unknown is the depression angle of the eyes with ship B, α

7) opposite leg = 500√3 feet + 1000√3 feet = 1500√3 feet

8) adjacent leg = height of the cliff = 1500 feet

9) tan(α) = opposite leg / adjacent leg = 1500√3 / 1500 = √3

10) α = arctan(√3) = 60°

11) Depression angle = 90° - 60° = 30° Which is the answer
