The answer is B because PG is parallel to AB
The answer to this problem is 1 :)
x-3y= 1
The equation needs to be rewritten in proper Slope intercept form ( y = mx+b) where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.
x-3y = 1
Subtract x from each side:
-3y = 1-x
Divide both sides by -3:
y = 1/-3 - x/-3
Simplify:
y = 1/3x - 1/3
The slope is 1/3

Answer:
y = 8√3
Step-by-step explanation:
In the 30°-60°-90° "special" triangle, the ratio of sides lengths is ...
1 : √3 : 2 = 8 : y : hypotenuse
In order for these ratios to be equal, we must have ...
y = 8√3
__
If you want to solve this using your trig skills, you recognize that ...
Tan = Opposite/Adjacent
tan(30°) = 8/y
y = 8/tan(30°) . . . . where tan(30°) = 1/√3
y = 8√3
