Answer:
8/17
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct and complete question is:
<em>Use △XYZ, in which ∠X is a right angle and tanY=8/15. What is the ratio for sinY?</em>
From definition:
tan(Y) = opposite/adjacent
From the graph and the question:
tan(Y) = XZ/XY = 8/15
Then:
XZ = 8 and XY = 15. Using pytaghorean theorem:
XZ² + XY² = YZ²
8² + 15² = YZ²
√289 = YZ
17 = YZ
From definition:
sin(Y) = opposite/hypotenuse
From the graph:
sin(Y) = XZ/YZ
sin(Y)= 8/17
Simplify 2x+6=4x+-2 reorder the terms 6+2x=4x+-2
Answer:
y=-1.5x-4
Step-by-step explanation:
Slope intercept form is y=mx+b
Bring x over to the other side
2y=-8-3x
divide by 2
y=-4-1.5x
y=-1.5x-4 should be your equation in slope-intercept form
