Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you need to write an equation for this problem. I'll write it in slope intercept:

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept

To find m, do (change in y/change in x):

using (2, 59000) and (5, 72500),

(72500 - 59000) / (5 - 2)

= 13500 / 3

= 4500

So we have y = 4500x + b

To find b, plug in one of the points into the equation with the slope:

using (2, 59000),

y = 4500x + b

59000 = 4500(2) + b

59000 = 9000 + b

50000 = b

So now you have an equation: y = 4500x + 50000. Now that there is an equation, just insert the given y-value and solve:

when y = 77000

y = 4500n + 50000

= 77000 = 4500x + 50000

= 27000 = 4500x

= 6 = x

So, when Claire's Salary is 77000, her number of years at the company is 6.

In ΔLMN, the measure of ∠N=90°, the measure of ∠M=17°, and MN = 20 feet. Find the length of LM to the nearest tenth of a foot.

andrey2020 [161]

20.9 ft
This is a right triangle trigonometry question because N is 90 degrees. MN is adjacent to M and LM is the hypotenuse. Adjacent any hypotenuse use the cosine function.
$cos \theta = \frac{adj}{hyp}$
plug in known values
$cos(17) = \frac{20}{x}$
switch cos(20) and x using the products property
$x = \frac{20}{cos(17)}$
plug into calculator to get 20.9 ft
