Answer:

C: y = -3x +3

Step-by-step explanation:

Lines that are parallel have the same slope have so the slope of the line in -3, now we have to find the y-intercept, we can do this by substituting -2 for x and 9 for y and solve for b

9 = -3(-2) +b

9 = 6 + b

b = 3

So the line that is parallel to y = -3x -8 and goers through the point (-2,9) is y = -3x + 3 or answer C

Answer:

y = -3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the line is parallel, it has the same slope. Plug the point you have into the equation y - y1 = slope (x -x1) to get your answer, which should be y = -3x +3

Hopefully this helps - let me know if you have any questions!

Which new angle is created by extending one side of a triangle

8090 [49]

Answer: The correct option is (C). an exterior angle.

Step-by-step explanation: We are to select the name of the new angle that is created by extending one side of a triangle.

Let ABC be a triangle as shown in the attached figure.

∠ABC, ∠ACB and ∠BAC are three interior angles of the triangle ABC.

Let us extend the side BC towards C to point D. The newly created angle is ∠ACD.

∠ACD is called the exterior angle of ΔABC.

Therefore, the newly created angle is an exterior angle.

Thus, option (C) is correct.

Sarawongs school is selling tickets to the anual talent show on the first day of ticket sales the school sold 1 adult ticket and

vaieri [72.5K]

Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Adult ticket = x

Student ticket = y

According to given statement;

x+2y=27 Eqn 1

2x+2y=36 Eqn 2

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 2;

$(2x+2y)-(x+2y)=36-27\\2x+2y-x-2y=9\\x=9$

Putting x=9 in Eqn 1;

$9+2y=27\\2y=27-9\\2y=18$

Dividing both sides by 2;

$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\y=9$

Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.

Find the number that makes the 2 fractions equivalent 3/8=9/?

Lorico [155]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator of the equivalent fraction of 3/8 is 9. From this, we can see that the common factor that is being multiplied is 3. So the denominator, 8, has to be multiplied by 3 as well which gives you 24. 9/24 is an equivalent fraction of 3/8

Solve the following triangle completely.

RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

The answers is below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) A = 180 - 25.6 - 124.4 = 30 degrees.

Next use the Sine Rule:

b / sin B = c / sin C

b / sin 25.6 = 39.2/sin 124.4

b = (39.2 * sin 25.6) / sin 124.4

b = 20.53 m.

Also

a / sin A = c / sin C

a / sin 30 = 39.2 / sin 124.4

a = (39.2 * sin 30 / sin 124.4

a = 23.75 m.

b). This is solved in a similar way to (a).

First find angle C using the sine rule.

Then you will know angle A from the 180 degree Rule.

Then you can find the length of a using the Sine Rule.
