Answer:

tan A = -15/8.

Step-by-step explanation:

sin^2a = 1 - cos^2A

= 1 - (-8/17)^2

= 225/289

So sin A= 15/17

tan A = sin A / cos A

=  15/17 / -8/17

= 15/-8

= -15/8.

Write down the turning point of the graph y=x^2 - 8x + 22
Sloan [31]

Answer:

y=6

Step-by-step explanation:

Differentiate the equation

dy/dx=2x-8

Find the value of x in equation form

2x-8=0

x=8/2=4

Now x=4 is the line of symmetry or the parabola of the quadratic equation.

Plug back x=4 into the equation to find the turning point(minimum value)

y=(4)²-8(4)+22

y=16-32+22

y=6

The graph of which of the following equations is a line parallel ot the graph of x-5y=8
kvv77 [185]

Since you don't show the graph, all I can do is to tell you how to identify which function is parallel to the x-5y=8.

First let's rearrange the function.

x-5y=8

5y=x-8

y=1/5x-8/5.

Thus, it gives us the slope of the function, which is 1/5.

And the function that is parallel to the graph would have the SAME slope. Which is 1/5. So all you need to do is to find which function has the SAME SLOPE, in this case: 1/5.
