Answer:
y = 1/3x -2
Step-by-step explanation:
the equation for slope intercept form is y= mx + b.
m is the slope and b is where the line crosses the y-axis which is called the y-intercept.
to find the y-intercept plug in a coordinate on the line (6,0)
0 = 1/3(6) + b
then solve for b by first multiplying 1/3 by 6
0 = 2 + b
subtract 2 from both sides
-2 = b
and then you can plug b into the equation
y = 1/3x - 2
Answer is 86.47 cm hope helped
Answer:
It is 35x+20
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
b=8.5cm
Step-by-step explanation:
tanx (this represents tan theta, it's just easier to type) is equal to 0.6 and since the tanx ratio is opp/adj, we know that opp/adj = 0.6
To find what b is (adjacent as it is adjacent to the angle being used and it is not the hypotenuse), we just have to rearrange.
0.6=5.1/adj
to solve for adj, we can switch 0.6 and adj. (This works because to get adj by itself on one side you would multiply it to the other side and then divide 0.6 from both sides --> simple algebra)
so then you have
adj=5.1/0.6
adj=8.5cm
(if you want to check your solution you can use pythagoeran theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2) and sub everything in and make sure all the numbers equal the right thing!
