Answer:

y = 7/5 x + 31

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the slope, we need to use the formula

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m =(-4-17)/(5- -10)

   = -21/(5+10)

  = 21/15

Divide the top and bottom by 3.

  = 7/5

The slope is 7/5.


Using the point slope form of the equation,

y-y1 = m(x-x1)

y-17 = 7/5 (x--10)

y-17 = 7/5(x+10)

Distribute the 7/5 ths.

y-17 = 7/5 x + 7/5*10

y-17 = 7/5 x +14

Add 17 to each side

y = 7/5 x + 14 + 17

y = 7/5 x + 31


This is in slope intercept form, with the slope  being 7/5 and the y intercept of 31

Matt and Mark went to El Rodeo to have some dinner. Matt ordered 3 tacos and 2 enchiladas, which cost him $4.93. Mark ordered 2
lord [1]

Answer:

The cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the cost of tacos be X

and cost of enchiladas be y

So, by using given data, we have following equations

3X + 2Y = 4.93             (1)

2X + 4Y = 6.38             (2)

So, first multiply 1st equation by 2 and 2nd equation by 3, then subtracting 1st equation by 2nd.

= 2 × ( 3X + 2Y = 4.93)       (1)

= 3 × (2X + 4Y = 6.38)        (2)

= - (6X + 4Y = 9.86)              (1)

= 6X + 12y = 19.14            (2)

= 8Y = 9.28

Y = 9.28 ÷ 8 = 1.16

By putting the value of Y in equation 1, we get

3X + 2(1.16) = 4.93

3X + 2.32 = 4.93

X = 2.61 ÷ 3 = 0.87

Hence, the cost of one taco is $0.87 and the cost of one enchilada is $1.16.

NeTakaya

Answer:

5.3 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Because CD corresponds to BC, the scale factor from triangle ABC to triangle CDE, is 7/8. Now, DE corresponds to AB, so to get DE, we must multiply the value of AB by 7/8. 6 times 7/8 is 5.25, and rounding to the nearest tenth of a foot, the value of DE is 5.3.

Describe what solving a trigonometric equation is.
AleksAgata [21]
That's an awfully broad question.  Could you not be more specific?

A basic example:  Suppose you are told that sin theta = 1/2.  Solving this equation would require finding the measure of the angle theta.  In this case the answer would be "30 degrees," or "pi/6 radians."
