Step-by-step explanation:

By using cosine rules:

6/sin45° = b/sin90°

b = 6× sin45°/sin90°

b = 9.124(3d.p)

Also,

using Pythagoras theorm of right-triangle

b² = 6² + a²

9.124² = 6² + a²

83.247376 = 36 + a²

83.247376-36 = a²

47.247376 = a²

√47.247376 = a

6.874 = a

Turn them into percentages:
2/6=1/3=33.333%
5/12=42%
3/7=43%
4/10=2/5=40%

Now put them in order :)

3x-7y=17 when x=-3,0,3

$3x-7y=17\\-7y=17-3x\ \ \ \ |:(-7)\\y=-\frac{17}{7}+\frac{3}{7}x\\\\When\ x=-3:\\y=-\frac{17}{7}+\frac{3}{7}\cdot(-3)\\y=-\frac{17}{7}-\frac{9}{7}\\y=-\frac{26}{7}=-3\frac{5}{7}\\\\When\ x=0:\\y=-\frac{17}{7}+\frac{3}{7}\cdot0\\y=-\frac{17}{7}=-2\frac{3}{7}\\\\When\ x=3:\\y=-\frac{17}{7}+\frac{3}{7}\cdot3\\y=-\frac{17}{7}+\frac{9}{7}\\y=-\frac{8}{7}=-1\frac{1}{7}$
