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.

Determine the value of each variable in the figure below. Keep answers in simplest<br> radical form.
Tanzania [10]

Answer:

  a = 21

  b = 63

  c = 42√3

  d = 21√3

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides of a 30°-60°-90° triangle have the ratios 1 : √3 : 2. The given side (42) is the longest side of the smallest triangle, and the shortest side of the largest triangle.

That means the other sides of the smallest triangle will be ...

  a = 42/2 = 21

  a+b = 2(42) = 84

  b = (a+b) -a = 84 -21 = 63

  d = 21√3 . . . . middle-length side of the smallest triangle

  c = 42√3 . . . . middle-length side of the largest triangle

The values of the variables are ...

  • a = 21
  • b = 63
  • c = 42√3
  • d = 21√3
