get the equation in slope intercept form

2x-3y=9

subtract 2x from each side

-3y = -2x +9

divide by -3

y = 2/3 x -3

slope = 2/3

y intercept = -3

x intercept set y=0 and solve

0 = 2/3 x -3

add 3 to each side

3 = 2/3 x

multiply each side by 3/2

9/2 = x

the x intercept is 9/2 or 4 1/2

If angle a has the terminal ray that falls in the fourth quadrant and cosine a equals 5/9 then determine the value of sin a in s

Tema [17]

Answer: $-\dfrac{2\sqrt{14}}{9}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$\cos a=\dfrac{5}{9}$

$a$ lies in the fourth quadrant

So, sine must be negative in the fourth quadrant

Using identity $\sin ^2 x+\cos^2 x=1$ to find sine value

$\Rightarrow \sin^2 a=1-\dfrac{5^2}{9^2}$

$\\\\\Rightarrow \sin^2 a=1-\dfrac{25}{81}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \sin^2 a=\dfrac{56}{81}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \sin a=-\sqrt{\dfrac{56}{81}}\\\\\\\Rightarrow \sin a=-\dfrac{2\sqrt{14}}{9}$

Find the value of x.

sp2606 [1]

x = 64°

Step-by-step Explanation

x = 1/2[(360° - 2*58°)-2*58°]

x = 1/2[(360° - 2*58°) - 2*58°]

x = 1/2[(360° - 116°) - 116°]

x = 1/2[244° - 116°]

x = 1/2[128°]

x = 64°

Graph the line with slope 1 passing through the point (5,1).

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

y= x-4

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have a point, and the slope, we can use the point slope formula

$y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1} )$

m is the slope, y1 is the y coordinate of the point and x1 is the x coordinate of the point.

We know that m is 1, y1 is 1, and x1 is 5, so we can substitute them in

y-1=1(x-5)

Solve for y by isolating it

Distribute the 1

y-1=1*x+ 1*-5

y-1=x-5

Add 1 to both sides

y=x-4
