1.2 miles = 6,336 feet
IF the length is measured along the ground then:
tan (angle) = opp / adjacent
tan (angle) = 3,200 / 6,336
<span>tan (angle) = 0.505050505</span>
angle = 26.796 Degrees
IF the length is measured from the ground to the top then:
sin (angle) = opp / hypotenuse
<span>sin (angle) = 0.505050505</span>
angle = 30.335 Degrees
First solve for the slope, m using the two points given. It doesn't matter which point you choose as point 1 or 2 as long as you're consistent.
m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1)
point 1: (–6.4, –2.6)
point 2: (5.2, 9)
m = (9 - -2.6)/(5.2 - -6.4)
m = (9 + 2.6)/(5.2 + 6.4)
m = 11.6/11.6
m = 1
put the newly found slope into the linear equation for m
y = (1)x + b
y = x + b
Now solve for the y-intercept, b
by putting one of the given points
9 = 5.2 + b
b = 9 - 5.2
b = 3.8
final equation:
y = x + 3.8
Answer:
No, it is not.
Step-by-step explanation:
comparing the two given values, 1.75 and 6, estimating 1.75 for 6 is not reasonable. This is due to the fact that converting 1.75 to the nearest whole number gives 2 which is far away from 6. Since,
6 - 2 = 4
So, estimating 1.75 for 6 would involve a large value of error. Which make it unreasonable. It would have been more reasonable to estimate 1.75 for 2.
The interpretation of the slope in the context of the problem is: For every hour the electrician works, her pay will increase $28.
<h3>How to Interpret the Slope of a Function?</h3>
The slope of any function is the unit rate or average rate of change of the given function for that situation.
Given the function, E(x) = 130 + 28x, where:
E(x) is the amount an electrician charges per job
130 is the flat rate service which is the starting value or y-intercept
28 is the unit rate or slope, which is the fee charged per hour by the electrician to complete a job.
Thus, the interpretation of the slope in the context of the problem is: For every hour the electrician works, her pay will increase $28.

Hey there!
2x+1=73.
2x=72.
x=36<span>.
</span>
So the 2 consecutive numbers are 72 and 36!
Hope this helps! :)
