Answer:
y=-2/3x-13/3
Step-by-step explanation:
parralel line have the same gradient
y=mx+c is the general straight line equation
m represents the gradient
if the equation is y=-2/3x+3/2
m=-2/3
the coordinates (4,-7)
x=4
y=-7
substitute into equation
-7=-2/3×4+c
-7=-8/3+c
c=-7+8/3
c=-13/3
so the equation is :
y=-2/3x-13/3
Answer:
A.) 2752.8 feet
B.) 5044.3 feet
C.) 6182.9 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
A.) Given that the camp to the base of the mountain is 2,000 feet. And the angle of elevation is 54 degrees
Using SohCahToa, to calculate the height
Tan 54 = height/2000
Height = 2000 tan54 = 2752.8 feet
B.) Given that the base of the mountain is 2600 feet wide.
Let use pythagorean theorem to find the slant length
Adjacent = 2600/2 = 1300 feet
Slant length = root ( 1300^2 + 2752.8^2)
Slant length = 3044.3 feet
The total distance that Jacob and his dad hiked from their campsite to the top of the mountain will be
3044.3 + 2000 = 5044.3 feet
C.) Given that the angle of depression is 24 degrees while the height is 2752.8 feet
Using pythagorean theorem again
Tan 24 = 2752.8/distance
Distance = 2752.8/tan24
Distance = 6182.9 feet
Hank is 9 years old. Explanation - What I did is I made a chart, and the categories were Sam and Hank. Then all I did was add 5 to Sam's age and added 3 to Hank's age. I repeated this until the sum of the ages equaled 24.
