Answer:
x + 2y = -1
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we'll find the slope.
Slope = (2 - (-3)) / (-5 - 5) = 5 / -10 = -1/2
Since we know the slope and a point that belongs to the line, we can write this in point-slope form which will be:
y - 2 = -1/2(x - (-5)) *I used (-5, 2) but it doesn't matter which point you use
y = -1/2(x + 5) + 2
y = -1/2x - 1/2
Standard form:
1/2x + y = -1/2
x + 2y = -1
Answer:
D is the similar triangle
Step-by-step explanation:
A quick solution to this problem is using the hypotenuse.
You know that sin(A) is 1/4 and sin is opposite / hypotenuse, so the hypotenuse should be a multiple of 4 in order for the fraction to reduce to 1/4. (it might not be, but I usually do this to see if there's a quick solution)
Using this trick, you find that the only triangle with a hypotenuse that is a multiple of 4 is the last triangle. Now simply double check the other trig. functions to check whether it truly is the same.
To check each trig function, you must first determine the corresponding angle to angle A. Again, for simplicities sake, let's use 1/4 as a determiner for the angle. The only combination of sides divided by hypotenuse that simplifies to 1/4 is 6/24. Therefore 6 must be opposite to the angle, since it's sin(a) = 1/4 and sin is opposite / hypotenuse. So the angle is X.
Now check for both cos and tan
Cos(x) = 6(15)^0.5 / 24 = (15)^0.5 / 4 CHECKS OUT
Tan(x) = 6 / 6(15)^0.5 = 1 / (15)^0.5 CHECKS OUT
Since everything checks out, then answer D is truly correct.

Look at the picture.
We have the equation (1) 12x + 4y = 40.
We know, the sum of the acute angles in a right triangle is 90°.
Therefore we have the equation (2) (12x + 4y) + (17x - y) = 90
Substitute (1) to (2):
40 + 17x - y = 90 <em>subtract 40 from both sides</em>
17x - y = 50 (3)
We have the system of equations:
Substitute the value of x to (3)
Answer: x = 3 and y = 1.
