To form an equation with the given information, we use the formula :
y = mx + b, m being the slope and b being the y-intercept.
Since it is given that the slope is -9/7, we substitute m with -9/7.
y = -9/7x + b
To find b, we will substitute the known coordinates into the equation :
At point (-7 , 4), x = -7, y = 4
4 = -9/7 (-7) + b
4 = 9 + b
b = 4 - 9
b = -5
Now we know that b = -5, we will substitute b = -5 into the equation that we found earlier, y = -9/7 x + b :
y = - 9/7x - 5
To make it more readable, we can multiply the equation by 7:
7y = -9x - 5
7y + 9x + 5 = 0

Answer : 7y + 9x + 5 = 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
Let assume that Earth is a sphere, the following trigonometric diagram is constructed and presented below. The central angle is given by this inverse trigonometric equation:



The distance of the portion of Earth that can be seen is:


The formula for the hypotenuse of a triangle is:
[a squared] plus [b squared] = c squared
a and b represent the two sides of the triangle.
You would have to square 8 and 4, add them, then take the square root of it to find the length of the hypotenuse.
<h2>The first equation is correct.</h2>
To do this question you need to multiply base times height. So it would be 24*17. After that, you should get 408 square feet.
Answer: 380 ft^2
Step-by-step explanation:
Length of sides of square=25
Diameter of semicircle=25
Radius=r=25/2=12.5
π=3.14
Area of square=length x length
Area of square=25 x 25=625
Area of semicircle=0.5 x π x r x r
Area of semicircle=0.5 x 3.14 x 12.5 x 12.5
Area of semicircle=245.3125
Area of shaded portion=area of square - area of semicircle
Area of shaded portion=625-245.3125
Area of shaded portion=379.6875
Area of shaded portion=380ft^2
approximately
