Slope is -2/5 and y-intercept is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Write the equation in slope-intercept form y = mx + b

2x + 5y = 10

5y = -2x + 10

y = -2/5 x + 10/5

y = -2/5 x + 2

Step 2: Find the slope and y-intercept from the equation.

Slope, m = -2/5

y-intercept, b = 2

3. A utility pole is 38 ft tall. The pole creates a 53 ft shadow. What is the angle of elevation of the sun? Round your answer t

dybincka [34]

Answer:

The angle of elevation of the sun is $36\degree$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let $x$ be the angle of elevation of the sun as shown in the diagram.

Then the side length which is $38$ feet is opposite to $x$ and the side length which is $53$ feet is adjacent to $x$ .

Therefore we use the trigonometric ratio that involves the opposite and adjacent sides, which is the tangent ratio.

$\tan x=\frac{38}{53}$

$\Rightarrow \tan x=0.71698$

We solve for $x$ to get,

$x=\arctan (0.71698)$

$\Rightarrow x=35.63981$

To the nearest degree, the angle of elevation is $36\degree$
