Answer:

b. - 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Start at the point highest on the line(3,4). Subtract the x value of the second point, from the x value of the first point.(3-7) Then do the same with the y values.(4-3) This gives you x=-4and y= 1. Slope= y/x, so you get -1/4

Answer: -1/4

Explanation:

m = (y1 - y)/(x1 - x)
m = (4-3)/(3-7)
m = 1/-4 = -1/4

9. What value of m makes this equation true? 1/2 (8m - 18) = 31

OverLord2011 [107]

Answer:

m = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of m that would make this equation true is 10. To figure this out you must work the equation to combine like terms. To start, remember PEMDAS. You would begin with 1/2 (8m - 18) and multiply both 8m and 18 by 1/2. Because half of 8 is 4 and half of 18 is 9, your new equation would be 4m - 9 = 31. From here you would add nine to both sides to finish combining like terms. The equation from this point should be 4m = 40. To find the value of m, you then have to divide both sides by 4, leading to the equation/solution of m = 10.

Tara standing 20 feet from a tree and the angle of elevation is 72°. About how tall is the tree?

Zinaida [17]

Answer:

Approx 61.554 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are dealing with the opposite and adjacent sides, we will use tangent as our ratio.

Since the angle of elevation is 72 degrees, the left side of our equation is $tan(72)$ .
