<h3>Answer: C) 2</h3>

====================================================

Work Shown:

cot(theta) = cos(theta)/sin(theta)

cot(theta) = x/y

cot(theta) = -4/(-2)

cot(theta) = 2

Find the slope of a line parallel to the line through the given points. P(-2, 4), Q(6, -2) 4/3 3/4 -3/4

Galina-37 [17]

Answer:

slope = - $\frac{3}{4}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Parallel lines have equal slopes thus the slope of a parallel line will be equal to the slope of PQ

To calculate slope m use the slope formula

m = $\frac{y_{2}-y_{1} }{x_{2}-x_{1} }$

with (x₁, y₁ ) = P(- 2, 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = Q(6, - 2)

m = $\frac{-2-4}{6+2}$ = $\frac{-6}{8}$ = - $\frac{3}{4}$

What is the equation of a line with an intercept of -3 and a slope of 5?

Setler79 [48]

Answer:

y= 5x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

We have an intercept of -3 and a slope of 5

We can use the slope intercept form of the equation

y= mx+b where m is the slope and b is the y intercept

Substituting in the known values.

y= 5x-3

If A = 50 degrees, B = 62 degrees, and a = 4, find b.<br><br> Round to the nearest tenth.

Phoenix [80]

<h3>Answer: 4.6</h3>

=================================================

Work Shown:

Use the law of sines

b/sin(B) = a/sin(A)

b/sin(62) = 4/sin(50)

b = sin(62)*4/sin(50)

b = 4.61042489526572

b = 4.6

Make sure your calculator is in degree mode.
