Answer:

5.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

sin a = 8/10

sin a = x/7

8/10 = x/7

x = 8/10 * 7 = 28/5 = 5.6 ft

Find the x- and y- intercepts of the line with the equation 3x+4y=-12
masya89 [10]
3x + 4y = -12

X - Intercept:    3x + 4y = -12
                      3x + 4(0) = -12
                           3x + 0 = -12
                                 3x = -12
                                  3       3
                                   x = -4
                             (x, y) = (-4, 0)

Y - Intercept:   3x + 4y = 12
                     3(0) + 4y = 12
                         0 + 4y = 12
                               4y = 12
                                4      4
                                 y = 3
                           (x, y) = (0, 3)

What is the equation of a line with a x-intercept of −2 and a y-intercept of 10?
IceJOKER [234]

Hey there! :)

Answer:

y = 5x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given, we can derive the points (-2, 0) and (0, 10). Find the slope using the slope formula:

m = \frac{\text{rise}}{\text{run}} = \frac{y_2 - y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

Plug in the points:

m= \frac{10 - 0}{0 - (-2)}

Simplify:

m= \frac{10}{2}

m = 5.

The equation in slope-intercept form is y = mx + b. We were already given the b value, or y-intercept as y = 10. Therefore:

y = 5x + 10 is the equation written in slope-intercept form.
