Answer:
m = -1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
4y + x = 8
Arrange the equation in a slope intercept form y = mx+b, where m is the slope
4y + x = 8, subtract x from both sides
4y = -x +8, divide both sides by 4
y = -x/4 + 8/4 , simplify
y = -x/4 + 2, compare this to the general form y=mx+b and we see that the slope m = -1/4
Answer:
False
Step-by-step explanation:
The equation equals -1/2 - 4.25 which is -4.75, which is negative.

<span>We need to calculate noon sun angle. Noon sun angle is an angle at which sun-rays fall at noon on a given date.
</span>On September 22, the sun’s rays form a 90° angle at noon at the equator.
Formula for calculating noon sun angle is:
Noon_sun_angle = 90° - Zenith angle
We have complementary angles so we need to substract zenith angle from 90°.
The zenith angle is the distance between subsolar point (point where sun is at 90°) and the latitude of an observer. In our case this angle will have same value as latitude because subsolar point is at equator 0°. If our latitude and subsolar point are at same hemisphere we substract values. Otherwise we add values.
New Orleans, USA
Latitude = 30°
Noon_sun_angle = 90° - 30° = 60°
Helsinki, Finland
Latitude = 60°
Noon_sun_angle = 90° - 60° = 30°
