Answer:

5x + 4y + 12 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the point-slope equation of a straight line:  y - k = m(x -  h):

Here we are given the point (h, k):  (-8, 7) and the slope m = -5/4.  Inserting this info into the equation give above, we get:        y - 7 = (-5/4)(x + 8).

We must put this equation into "standard form" Ax + By + C = 0.

Multiply all three terms by 4 to remove fractions:  4y - 28 = -5(x + 8), or

4y - 28 + 5x + 40 = 0

Rearranging these terms, we get 5x + 4y + 12 = 0, which is the desired equation in standard form.

How do I draw a 50 degree angle ?
olga55 [171]
<h2>Answer :-</h2>

To draw a 50 degree angle with a protactor, proceed as follows :

  • Draw a straight line (i.e. an arm of the angle).

  • Place a dot at one end of the arm. This dot represents the vertex of the angle.

  • Place the centre of the protractor at the vertex dot and the baseline of the protractor along the arm of the angle.

  • Find 50 degree angle on the scale and then mark a small dot at the edge of the protractor.

  • Join the small dot to the vertex with a ruler to form the second arm of the angle.

  • Label the angle with capital letters.

Remember that 50 degree angle cannot be constructed using compass.
