Answer:

The equation of the horizontal line that passes through (5 , -7) is y = -7

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of any in the slope-intercept form is y = mx + c, where

1. m is the slope of the line

2. c is the y-intercept

3. The slope of a horizontal line is zero

4. The vertical line has no slope

If the line is horizontal that means all the y-coordinates of the points lie

on the line are equal

Ex: If a horizontal line passes through point (2 , -1), then the equation

of the line is y = -1

If the line is vertical that means all the x-coordinates of the points lie

on the line are equal

Ex: If a vertical line passes through point (3 , 2), then the equation

of the line is x = 3

∵ The horizontal line passes through point (5 , -7)

∴ The equation of the line is y = -7

The equation of the horizontal line that passes through (5 , -7) is

y = -7

Thomas buys a cardboard sheet that is 8 by 12 inches. Let x be the side length of each cutout. Using complete sentences, explain

jasenka [17]

Answer: V = (12in - 2*x)*(8 in - 2*x)*x

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have a rectangular cardboard sheet, and we cut four squares of side length x in each corner so we can make a box.

Remember that for a box of length L, width W and height H, the volume is:

V = L*W*H

In this case, the length initially is 12 inches, but we remove (from each end) x inches of the length, then the length of the box will be:

L = 12 in - 2*x

For the width we have a similar case:

W = 8in - 2*x

And te height of the box will be equal to x, then:

H = x

This means that the volume is:

V = (12in - 2*x)*(8 in - 2*x)*x

Here we can see the connection between the cutout and the volume of the box

Find the value of the csc 40° using your calculator. (I've been having a hard time with this, so it'd be helpful if anyone could

SCORPION-xisa [38]

The correct answer is: 
C 1.556.

Explanation:
This can be found by locating the csc button on your calculator. Typically it is located as the second option below the sin button as it is the inverse function.
If you cannot locate the csc button on your calculator, you can also use $\frac{1}{sin(40)}$ as csc is its inverse.

Also, it is helpful to note that some calculators have both a degrees and a radians mode for trigonometric functions. You will need to make sure that you are in degrees in order to use a calculator to solve this.
