Use trigonometry.

sinQ = 14/50 = 0.28
-> angle Q = sin^-1(0.28) = approx 16 degrees

-> cosQ = A/H -> cos16 = PQ/50

=> PQ = 50*cos16 = approx 48.06

So yea.

4. Write an equation for the line that is parallel to the given line and that passes

pentagon [3]

Answer:

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

<u>What we need to know:</u>

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)
Parallel lines always have the same slope

<u>1) Determine the slope (m)</u>

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-10$

In the given equation, $\frac{5}{2}$ is in the place of m, making it the slope. Because parallel lines have the same slope, the line we're currently solving for therefore has a slope of $\frac{5}{2}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

<u>2) Determine the y-intercept (b)</u>

$y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$

Plug in the given point (-6,-29) and solve for b

$-29=\frac{5}{2}(-6)+b$

Simplify -6 and 2

$-29=\frac{5}{1}(-3)+b\\-29=(5)}(-3)+b\\-29=-15+b$

Add 15 to both sides to isolate b

$-29+15=-15+b+15\\-14=b$

Therefore, the y-intercept is -14. Plug this back into $y=\frac{5}{2}x+b$ :

$y=\frac{5}{2}x-14$

I hope this helps!

1. a. Is 3.2 - 5.7 positive, negative, or<br> zero?<br> (A. negative<br> B. zero<br> C. positive

3.2-5.7=-2.5 so its have to be a negative because a smaller number subtract a bigger number have to be equal to a negative number.
