Answer:

The slope is -2/9

Step-by-step explanation:

9y + 2x = 54

Solve for y to get the equation in the form

y = mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Subtract 2x from each side

9y + 2x -2x = -2x+54

9y = -2x+54

Divide by 9

9y/9 = -2x/9 + 54/9

y = -2/9 x +6

The slope is -2/9

Parallel lines have the same slope

Describe the vector as an ordered pair around coordinates to the nearest 10th the diagram is not drawn to scale

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

see explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

x = r cosΘ

y = r sinΘ

with r = 54 and Θ = 69°, thus

x = 54cos69° ≈ 19.4

y = 54sin69° ≈ 50.4

Thus (54, 69° ) as an ordered pair

= $\left[\begin{array}{ccc}19.4\\50.4\\\end{array}\right]$
