Answer:

  • 16.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the angle is x

Imagine the right triangle with the angle x, with side opposite to angle x 15 ft and the adjacent side is 50 ft.

<u>Use trigonometry:</u>

  • tangent = opposite / adjacent
  • tan x = 15/50
  • tan x = 0.3
  • x = arctan 0.3
  • x = 16.7° (rounded)

First of all, your fractions that you wrote were wrong. You flipped the numbers over. When you're finding the slope of a graph, the number on the y-axis is always the numerator while the x-axis is the denominator. 

Your first answer would be the actual slope- which is 3.

Your second answer would be the number of products that company would sell if the got 1,000 web views So just multiply 3 by 1,000. That means that the company will sell 3,000 products.

Question 9 of 2
vagabundo [1.1K]

Company A charges a $125 annual fee plus $7 per hour car share fee.

Company B charges $110 plus $10 per hour. The minimum number of hours that a car share needs to be used per year to make company A a better deal is 6 hours.

A: y=125+7 x

B: y=110+10 x

for A to be a better deal than B, 125+7 x<110+10 x has to be true

subtract 7x from both sides and subtract 110 from both sides of the inequality: 15<3 x

divide by 3: 5<x

so x has to be greater than 5 , im pretty sure it's 6 hours but it might also be 5 depending on how it's taught for you.

Equations are not always balanced on both sides using a "equal to" symbol in mathematics. Sometimes it can be about a "not equal to" relationship, meaning that something is superior to or inferior to another. In mathematics, an inequality is a relationship between two numbers or other mathematical expressions that results in an unequal comparison. Inequalities are the name given to certain algebraic mathematical expressions.
