Take 20 laps divide by 8 then take the number times 9 laps
Answer:
y = (7/2)x -20
Step-by-step explanation:
The given line is in slope-intercept form, so you can read its slope from the equation.
y = mx + b . . . . . m is the slope; b is the y-intercept
y = -(2/7)x + 9 . . . . . . has slope -2/7
The perpendicular line will have a slope that is the negative reciprocal of this, so will be ...
m = -1/(-2/7) = 7/2
We can use this and the given point to write the equation in point-slope form.
y = m(x -h) +k . . . . . . line with slope m through point (h, k)
We have m = 7/2, (h, k) = (4, -6) so the equation is ...
y = (7/2)(x -4) -6
y = (7/2)x -20
Here, I've attached a picture of the triangle that accompanies this explanation.
cot = = =
Now view the triangle.
PS. Angle theta will have a coordinate of (-, +) because it is in quadrant II.
sin of the angle would be opposite/hypotenuse, so sin =
cos of the angle would be adjacent/hypotenuse, so cos =
tan of the angle would be opposite/adjacent, so tan =
I'm guessing it is 10? or 7?
