Answer:

y= -3x +6

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>slope-intercept form</u><u>:</u>

y=mx +c, where m is the slope and c is the y-intercept.

Given that the slope is -3, m= -3.

Susbt. m= -3 into the equation:

y= -3x +c

Since the line passes the point (4, -6),

(4, -6) lies on the line and must therefore satisfy the equation. Thus, susbt. (4, -6) into the equation to find the value of c.

y= -3x +c

when x=4, y= -6,

-6= -3(4) +c

-6= -12 +c

c= 12 -6

c= 6

Hence, the equation of the line is y= -3x +6.

An acute angle, θ, is in a right triangle such that sin of theta is equal to 3 over 8 period What is the value of cot θ?
Serggg [28]

We want to find the value of cot(θ) given that sin(θ) = 3/8 and θ is an angle in a right triangle, we will get:

cot(θ) = (√55)/3

So we know that θ is an acute angle in a right triangle, and we get:

sin(θ) = 3/8

Remember that:

  • sin(θ) = (opposite cathetus)/(hypotenuse)
  • hypotenuse = √(  (opposite cathetus)^2 +  (adjacent cathetus)^2)

Then we have:

opposite cathetus = 3

hypotenuse = 8 = √(3^2 +  (adjacent cathetus)^2)

Now we can solve this for the adjacent cathetus, so we get:

adjacent cathetus = √(8^2 - 3^2) = √55

And we know that:

cot(θ) = (adjacent cathetus)/(opposite cathetus)

Then we get:

cot(θ) = (√55)/3

You brought 9 feet of elastic to make hair ties each hair ties need 3 3/8 inches of elastic how many hair ties can you make
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

32\ hair\ ties

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

To make one hair ties is needed 3 3/8 inches of elastic

so

using proportion

Find out how many hair ties can you make with 9 feet of elastic

Remember that

1\ ft=12\ in

Convert 9 ft to inches

9\ ft=9*12=108\ in

Convert mixed number to an improper fraction

3\frac{3}{8}\ in=\frac{3*8+3}{8}=\frac{27}{8}\ in

using proportion

\frac{1}{(27/8)}=\frac{x}{108}\\\\x=108*8/27\\\\x=32\ hair\ ties
