Hello
This question requires us to change the subject of a formula. This can be achieved by following the order of operations in reverse. First, isolate the terms with our variable of interest, x:
ax - bx = z - y
Then, we take x out as it is being multiplied to both a and b:
x(a - b) = z - y
Dividing (a - b) on both sides, we get:
x = (z - y) / (a - b)
Thus, the answer is A

Answer:
7 feet long
Step-by-step explanation:
This set up will give a right angle triangle where;
Length of the ladder is the hypotenuse = x
The distance of the ladder to the house is the adjacent = 3 feet
Angle of elevation theta = 72 degrees
Using the CAH in trigonometry identity;
cos theta = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos 72 = 3/hyp
hyp = 3/cos72
hyp = 3/0.4258
hyp = 7.05 feet
Hence the ladder is approximately 7 feet long
Answer:
or 
Step-by-step explanation:
first use the y2-y1/x2-x1 formula then use y=mx+b after
plug in 2 for y2 and -1 for y1
plug in -5 for x2 and 5 for x1
=
2+1=3
-5-5=-10
is ur slope
_____________________
this is the y=mx+b formula *extra info ig*
i usually use the first point for this but u can use watever point u want
plug in 5 for x
plug in -1 for y
and plug -3/10 for m
-1=-3/10(5)+b
-3/10*5=-3/2
-1=-3/2+b
add -3/2 on both sides
-1+3/2=1/2
1/2=b and b is ur y-intercept
y=-3/10x+1/2
hope this helps
