Here we have a 90 degrees triangle where we can use trigonometric functions. 

Here we can use tan(x) function because it requires legs of triangle that are given and inverse function of tan(x) will than give us asked angle 

tan(x) = 7.4/9.3 = 0.7956
x = arctan(0.7956) = 38.505 ≈ 39 degrees.

Answer:

1) 0.75

2) y = \frac{3}{4}x - 3

3) (4, 0); (0, -3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Convert to slope-intercept form (y = mx + b) by solving:

y = \frac{3}{4}x - 3

m is the slope, so \frac{3}{4} or you can write as 0.75.

To find the x and y intercepts, set the y value to zero and solve (x-intercept), and b is the y-intercept.
