Look at the pictures.

The slope-intercept form:

y=mx+b

m - slope \to m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

b - y-intercept

(1)

x-intercept = 4

y-intercept = 4 → b = 4

We have the points (0, 4) and (4, 0). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{0-4}{4-0}=\dfrac{-4}{4}=-1

Slope = -1

Equation: y = -x + 4

(2)

x-intercept = 6

y-intercept = -4 → b = -4

We have the points (0, 6) and (-6, 0). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{0-6}{-6-0}=\dfrac{-6}{-6}=1

Slope = 1

Equation: y = x - 4

(3)

x-intercept = 5

y-intercept = -3 → b = -3

We have the points (5, 0) and (0, -3). Substitute:

m=\dfrac{-3-0}{0-5}=\dfrac{-3}{-5}=\dfrac{3}{5}

Slope = \dfrac{3}{5}

Equation: y=\dfrac{3}{5}x-3

First, take a look at the vertical axis.  Its. equation is x=0.  count the number of scale divisions from the origin to the point where the line crosses the vertical axis.  It's 4.  Thus, the vertical intercept is (0,4).

Next, determine the x value where the line crosses the horizontal axis.  It's 4, and so the horiz. intercept is (4,0).

Going from (0,4) to (4,0), x increases by 4 and y decreases by 4.  Thus, the slope of the given line is m = rise / run = -4/4 = -1.

Starting with y = mx + b, substitute the knowns:  

b, the y-intercept, is 4.  m, the slope, is -1.  Thus, the equation of this line in slope-intercept form is y = -x + 4.

Someone help me please :(

Answer:

  A.  ∠EAG and ∠BAC

Step-by-step explanation:

Vertical angles share a vertex and have opposite rays for sides.

Rays AE and AB are opposite; rays AG and AC are opposite. These are the only pairs of opposite rays in the figure, so the vertical angles must be constructed from one of the rays of the first pair and one of the rays of the second pair. ∠EAG and ∠BAC are a pair of vertical angles.

The other pair is ∠EAC and ∠BAG.

A sign standing 6 feet tall is situated 18 feet away from a flag pole. at a certain time of day the sign's shadow is 3 feet long
alexdok [17]
Observe attached picture.

On picture we have:
A = height of flagpole = x ft
B = length of flagpole's shadow = 24 ft
C = height of sign = 6 ft
D = length of sign's shadow = 3 ft

When we draw a picture representing this problem we can also add another line marked in red. This way we can see that we have two right-angle triangles. We can see that both have same angle marked with α.

We can apply trigonometry rules to find height of flagpole.

From small triangle containing sign we can find tangens function:
tan \alpha = \frac{C}{D}
Similarly we can do for large triangle containing flagpole:
tan \alpha = \frac{A}{B}

We see that these two equations have same left sides. This means that their right sides must also be same:
\frac{C}{D} = \frac{A}{B}
We can solve for A:
CB=AD \\ A= \frac{CB}{D}  \\ A= \frac{6*24}{3}  \\ A=48 ft

Height of flagpole is 48 feet.
