A perpendicular line has an opposite reciprocal slope. This means that the new line will have a slope of -4/3x. Plug in x and y into the equation y=Mx +b where m is the slope (-4/3):
-3=(-3/4)(-3) + b
and isolate b:
b-3=(-3/4)(-3)
b=(-3/4)(-3) +3
b=9/4+3
b=21/4

The final equation is y= -4/3x + 21/4
The y intercept is (21/4).

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

52feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The set up will be a right angle

Let the angle of depression be 30°

The height above the sea level will be the opposite

The distance of the ship from the base is x (adjacent)

Using TOA

Tan theta = opposite/adjacent

Tan 30 = 30/x

x = 30/tan 30

x = 30/0.5774

x = 51.96

x ≈ 52 feet to the nearest foot

Brut [27]

Answer: 1008 letters

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, last Monday, a local mail carriers delivered 1,344 pieces of mail and of all the deliveries they made, 1 / 6 were magazines, 1 / 12 were packages, and the rest were letters. The fraction of letters will be:

= 1 - (1/6 + 1/12)

= 1 - (3/12)

= 9/12 = 3/4

We will now multiply 3/4 by 1344 to get the number of letters delivered.

= 3/4 × 1344

= 1008 letters
