Answer:

The slope is -1/5 and the y intercept is 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Y=-1/5x+12

This is in the form

y=mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

The slope is -1/5 and the y intercept is 12

Answer:

-1/5 = slope

12 = y-intercept

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

m is always equal to the slope

b is equal to the y-intercept

which makes -1/5 the slope

and makes 12 the y-intercept

Which equation represents a line that passed through (2,-1:2) and has a sloe of 3

ella [17]

The equation that represents a line that passed through (2,-1:2) and has a slope of 3 is y = 3x - 18

<h3>How to determine the equation of the line?</h3>

The points are given as:

(x1, y1) = (2, -12)

The slope is given as:

m = 3

The equation of the line is calculated using:

y = m(x - x1) + y1

So, we have:

y = 3(x - 2) - 12

Open the bracket

y = 3x - 6 - 12

Evaluate

y = 3x - 18

Hence, the equation of the line is y = 3x - 18

Find the missing sides.

Answer:

Part 3)

$x=6\ units$

$y=3\ units$

Part 4) $x=18\sqrt{2}\ units$

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 3)

Find the value of x

In the right triangle of the figure we know that

The cosine of angle of 30 degrees is equal to the adjacent side to angle of 30 degrees divide by the hypotenuse

$cos(30\°)=\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{x}$

and remember that

$cos(30\°)=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}$

substitute

$\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}=\frac{3\sqrt{3}}{x}$

Simplify

$x=(2*3)=6\ units$

Find the value of y

In the right triangle of the figure we know that

The sine of angle of 30 degrees is equal to the opposite side to angle of 30 degrees divide by the hypotenuse

$sin(30\°)=\frac{y}{x}$

and remember that

$sin(30\°)=\frac{1}{2}$

substitute

$\frac{1}{2}=\frac{y}{6}$

$y=6/2=3\ units$

Part 4) Find the value of x

Applying the Pythagoras Theorem

$x^{2} =18^{2} +18^{2} \\ \\x^{2} = 324+324\\ \\x^{2}=648\\ \\x=\sqrt{648}\ units$

Simplify

$x=18\sqrt{2}\ units$
