Answer:

The equation of a line through (5 -3) that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the slope of the line whose equation we need to find is m 1.

The line parallel to the needed line  is:   y=1/2x+3

Comparing it with the general form: y = m x + C

we get m 2 = 1/2

Now, as Line 1 is Perpendicular to Line 2.

⇒ m 1 x m 2  = -1

⇒ m 1 x ( 1/2)  = -1

⇒ m 1  = - 2

Also, the point son the line 1 is given as: (x,y)  = (5,-3)

Put the value of point and Slope in y = m x + C to find the value of Y- INTERCEPT.

we get: -3 = (-2) (5) +  C

or, C = -3 + 10 = 7

⇒ C = 7

The general line equation is given as:  y = m x + C

Substituting  the values of C and m, we get:

y = - 2 x  + 7

Hence, the equation of a line through 5 -3 that is parallel to y = 1/2 x+3 is

y = - 2 x  + 7

Find the value of angel 0 to the nearest 10th<br>​
BaLLatris [955]

Answer: 36.9

Step-by-step explanation:

For this question you have to find out whether you are using Sin, Cos or Tan.

To work out which one you are using you can use SOH CAH TOA to help you.

SOH- The 'S' is for Sin, the 'O' and the 'H' is for Opposite over Hypotenuse.

CAH- The 'C' is for Cos and the 'A' and the 'H' is for Adjacent over Hypotenuse.

TOA- The 'T' is for Tan, the 'O' and the 'A is for Opposite over Adjacent.

As you have the Opposite (the side opposite the angle we're looking for) and the Adjacent (the side next to the angle were looking for) we would be using Tan.

So first you would have to write:

Tanθ=3/4

Then because we want Theta (θ) on it's own we would have to do the inverse to 'undo' the equation. Tan-1 is the inverse of Tan.

θ=Tan-1 3/4

To find the answer you would have to put it in your calculator.

θ=36.9

Hope this helps :)

Can you make a triangle with angles 45 degrees, 90 degrees, and 35 degrees?
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

No

Step-by-step explanation:

To make a triangle the angles have to add up to 180 degrees so 90+45+35=170 degrees not 180.

TiliK225 [7]

We can calculate for the slope of the line using the formula:

m = (y2 – y1) / (x2 – x1)

 

From the given values:

m = (4,000 – 10,000) ft / (15 – 0) min

m = -400 ft/min

This means that the altitude is decreasing by 400 ft per minute.

 

 

> The slope is –400 . This means that the helicopter descends 400 ft each minute.
