Answer:

y = 5/6x -4/3

Step-by-step explanation:

We can find the slope

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

    = (-3-2)/(-2-4)

    =-5/-6

    = 5/6

We can use point slope form to find the equation

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-2 = 5/6(x-4)

Distribute

y-2 = 5/6x - 10/3

Add 2 to each side

y-2+2 = 5/6x -10/3+2

Get a common denominator

y = 5/6x -10/3 +6/3

y = 5/6x -4/3

Two hikers come to a ravine and want to know how wide it is. They set up two similar triangles as shown in the diagram. How far
dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

d = 80 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with angle BCA, tan(BCA) = 30/15 so BCA = 63.43 degrees.

BCA = ECD since they are opposite angles.

tan ECD = d/40

40 tan(63.4degrees) = d

d = 80 ft

Alternatively, you can use similar triangles since the angles are the same, BCA = ECD, CED = CAB, and CBA = EDC. In that case use proportions to get 30/15 = d/40 so 2 = d/40 and d = 80.

2p - 1/q = r/q + 4 , subject q
kondaur [170]

Solve for q:

2 p - 1/q = r/q + 4

Bring 2 p - 1/q together using the common denominator q. Bring r/q + 4 together using the common denominator q:

(2 p q - 1)/q = (4 q + r)/q

Multiply both sides by q:

2 p q - 1 = 4 q + r

Subtract 4 q - 1 from both sides:

q (2 p - 4) = r + 1

Divide both sides by 2 p - 4:

Answer:  q = (r + 1)/(2 p - 4)

Through (-4,3) , perpendicular to m=-2/3​
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

The equation of the line:

y=\frac{3}{2}x+9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

  • The point (-4, 3)
  • m = -2/3

We know that a line perpendicular to another line contains a slope that is the negative reciprocal of the slope of the other line, such as:

slope = m = -2/3

perpendicular to m = -1/m

                                 =-\frac{1}{\left(\frac{-2}{3}\right)}=\frac{3}{2}

Using the point-slope form of the line equation

y-y_1=m\left(x-x_1\right)

substituting the values m = 3/2 and the point (-4, 3)

y-3=\frac{3}{2}\left(x-\left(-4\right)\right)

y-3=\frac{3}{2}\left(x+4\right)

Add 3 to both sides

y-3+3=\frac{3}{2}\left(x+4\right)+3

y=\frac{3}{2}x+9

Thus, the equation of the line:

y=\frac{3}{2}x+9

What is 30 percent of 3700000
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

1110000

Step-by-step explanation:

1. We assume, that the number 3700000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 3700000 is 100%, so we can write it down as 3700000=100%.

4. We know, that x is 30% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=30%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 3700000=100%

2) x=30%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

3700000/x=100%/30%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 30% of 3700000

3700000/x=100/30

(3700000/x)*x=(100/30)*x       - we multiply both sides of the equation by x

3700000=3.33333333333*x       - we divide both sides of the equation by (3.33333333333) to get x

3700000/3.33333333333=x

1110000=x

x=1110000

now we have:

30% of 3700000=1110000
