sin(48°) = x / 1200ft. Multiply each side by 1200ft.

1200ft × sin(48°) = x.

x = 891.77 ft.

Answer:

$y=-\frac{1}{4}x+2$

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi there!

What we need to know:

Linear equations are typically organized in slope-intercept form: $y=mx+b$ where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept (the value of y when x is 0)
Parallel lines always have the same slope

1) Determine the slope of line S using line R (m)

$y=-\frac{1}{4} x+3$

We can identify clearly that the slope of the line is $-\frac{1}{4}$ , as it is in the place of m. Because parallel lines always have the same slope, the slope of line S would also be $-\frac{1}{4}$ . Plug this into $y=mx+b$ :
