Y=-1/3x-6, for this line, the slope (m) is -1/3.
This is because the equation is in the slope intercept form: y = mx + b.
The perpendicular line to one with m = -1/3, is the negative reciprocal of m, we'll call it m2.
m2 = --3/1 = +3/1 = 3
Answer:
10, it's 5 less than 5 times 3
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: C. 17.5 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached photo shows the triangle ABC formed by the ladder and the wall. It is a right angle triangle because one of its angles is 90 degrees. The ladder is the hypotenuse of the triangle. To determine the height of the wall, we would find BC by applying Pythagoras theorem
Hypotenuse^2 = opposite ^2 + adjacent^2
18^2 + 4.5^2 + BC^2
BC^2 = 324 - 20.25 = 303.75
BC = √303.75 = 17.5 feet.
The difference is going to be 7
Good evening
Answer:
<h2>measure of Angle 1 = 81°</h2><h2>Measure of angle 2 = 9°</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
we need to solve this system
x + y = 90 (1)
x = y + 72 (2)
If we substitute x by y+72 into the equation (1) we will get
(y+72) + y = 90 ⇔ 2y + 72 = 90 ⇔ 2y = 90 - 72 = 18 ⇔ y = 9
then x = 90 - 9 = 81
