Answer:

Option A. -(\frac{\sqrt{17}}{17})

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a given line is a + 4b = 0 or b = -\frac{1}{4}a

This in the form of y = mx + b, which is slope-intercept form.

Here slope of the line is (-\frac{1}{4}).

Or tanθ = \frac{(-1)}{4}

This line coincides with the terminal side of the angle in standard position where cosθ > 0

Since tanθ = \frac{\text{Height}}{\text{Base}}

and sinθ = \frac{\text{height}}{\txt{Hypotenuse}}

Hypotenuse = \sqrt{\text{height}^{2}+\text{Base}^{2}}

                     = \sqrt{(1^{2}+4^{2})}

                     = \sqrt{17}

Since tanθ is negative and cosθ > 0 that means θ lie in fourth quadrant.

Therefore, sinθ will be negative.

[ \frac{-sin\theta}{+cos\theta}=-tan\theta ]

sinθ = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{17}}

       = -\frac{1}{\sqrt{17}}\times \frac{\sqrt{17} }{\sqrt{17}} = -\frac{\sqrt{17}}{17}

Answer will be option A.

Teddy has 23 boxes of juice packed and plans to pack 3 additional boxes each hour. Charely has 7 boxes packed and plans to pack
Vadim26 [7]
The equation is already set up for you. All you need to do is solve for x, the number of hours.

23 + 3x = 5x + 7 original equation
23 - 7 = 5x - 3x combine like terms by subtracting 7 and 3x from both sides
16 = 2x simplify
16/2 = x divide both sides by 2 to isolate x
8 = x solve for x
Therefore, the answer is 8 hrs.

Find all zeros.
Jet001 [13]

Answer:

{ 0, 3, - 3 }

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = x(2x - 3)(x + 3)

to find the zeros let f(x) = 0 , that is

x(2x - 3)(x + 3) = 0

equate each factor to zero and solve for x

x = 0

2x - 3 = 0 ⇒ 2x = 3 ⇒ x = \frac{3}{2}

x + 3 = 0 ⇒ x = - 3

zeros are { 0, \frac{3}{2} , - 3 }
