slope intercept form
y=mx+b
where m is the slope and b is the y intercept
if we change from point slope form
y-y1 = m(x-x1)
we distribute
y-y1 = mx -x*x1
then add y1 to each side
y = mx -x*x1+y1
remember x and y are variables and should stay in the equation
m,x1,y1 are numbers from the problem
you may have to calculate the slope (m) from the formula
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) from two points on the line
Answer: Option B -- 72°
Step-by-step explanation:
If a town planner wants to build two new streets, Elm Street and Garden Road, to connect parallel streets Maple Drive and Pine Avenue. Using Trapezoid E F G H is shown. F G is Maple Drive, G H is Garden road, E H is Pine avenue, and E F is Elm Street. Sides F G and E H are parallel. Angle G is 108 degrees. In trapezoid EFGH, EF ≅ HG. The measure of the angle between Elm Street and Pine Avenue is 72°
Answer:
5.5 ft tall
Step-by-step explanation:
The shadows cast by the pole and by the woman form <em>similar triangles</em>.
In similar triangles, corresponding sides are in the same proportion.
Thus,
18/28.8 = x/8.8
Multiply each side of the equation by 8.8
x = 8.8 × 18/28.8 = 5.5 ft
The woman is 5.5 ft tall.
D 11 1/4 because trust me
5 baskets...each holds 15 apples....(5 x 15) = 75 apples
4 friends pick the same amount...
4 x 75 = 300 apples picked in total. <==
