Answer:

B. y=-9x-10

Step-by-step explanation:

The dolphin is starting 10 feet below sea level so the y-intercept (or b in slope-intercept form) would be negative 10. Diving means going down, or a negative slope, so the slope would be -9. When you plug those numbers into y=mx+b, you would get y=-9x-10.

Answer:

the length of the opposite side (x), is 27.2

Step-by-step explanation:

For the given right triangle problem;

the opposite side of the given angle, opp. = 22

the hypothenuse side,  hypo. = x

given angle of the triangle, θ = 54⁰

The length of the opposite side (x), is calculated as follows;

sin \ \theta = \frac{opp.}{hypo.} \\\\sin (54) = \frac{22}{x} \\\\x = \frac{22}{sin(54)} \\\\x = 27.2

Therefore, the length of the opposite side (x), is 27.2
