Slope = (y2-y1) / (x2-x1)
= (-4-20) / (6-4)
= (-24) / (2)
= (-12)

The slope of the line is (-12)

aisha and brendan are watching a hot air balloon. the angle of elevation for aisha is 65 degrees. what is the angle of elevation

astra-53 [7]

Using the law of sins:

B =sin^−1((sin(A)⋅a)/b) = sin^−1((sin(65)⋅110)/155)=40.03 degrees

B= 40.03 degrees (round as needed)

Can someone help with this please?

Answer:

y = x - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

From the table attached,

Scatter plot given in the graph is correct.

Let the equation of the line passing from a point (x', y') is,

y - y' = m(x - x')

m = slope

Slope of the line passing through two points $(x_2,y_2)$ and $(x_1,y_1)$ is given by,

m = $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

Therefore, slope of the line passing through the points (11, 8) and (12, 9) will be,

m = $\frac{(9-8)}{(12-11)} =1$

Therefore, equation of the line passing through (11, 8) will be,

y - 8 = 1(x - 11)

y = x - 11 + 8

y = x - 3

If you place a 20 ft ladder 4ft from the base of the wall. How high up will it reach? Round answer to the nearest tenth

xeze [42]

Answer:

h = 19.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A 20 ft ladder 4ft from the base of the wall.

The height of the ladder, H = 20 ft

The base distance, b = 4 ft

We need to find the height of the reach. Let it is P.

Using Pythagoras theorem,

$H^2=b^2+P^2\\\\P=\sqrt{H^2-b^2}\\\\P=\sqrt{20^2-4^2}\\\\=19.59\ ft$

P = 19.6 ft

So, the height is 19.6 ft.
