How do i graph the equation y= -4x - 1
1 answer:
9514 1404 393
Answer:
see attached
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the y-values corresponding to x-values of 0 and 1, then plot those points and draw a line through them.
For x=0, ...
y = -4·0 -1 = -1 . . . . the point is (0, -1) . . . the y-intercept
For x=1, ...
y = -4·1 -1 = -5 . . . . the point is (1, -5)
The attached graph shows these points and the line through them.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the sun's angle of elevation.
We have been given that a 6-foot tall man casts a shadow that is 12 feet long.
Upon looking at our attachment we can see that man and his shadow forma a right triangle with respect to ground, where height of man is opposite side and his shadow is adjacent side.
Since tangent relates opposite side of a right triangle with adjacent, so we can set an equation as:
Using arctan we will get,
Therefore, the measure of the sun's angle of elevation is 27 degrees.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Tangent of an angle in right angled triangle is defined as the ratio of opposite side to adjacent side.
In triangle ,
Given that and
tan()=
=
In triangle ,
Given
tan()=
=
Since,angle is same as angle
,their tangents are equal.
So,
