Answer:

The value of the tangent is -\frac{4}{5}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be A(x,y) = (-10, 8) on the terminal side of an angle in standard position and let be O(x,y) the origin of the angle and the origin of the Cartesian plane. By definition of tangent, we make use of the following expression:

\tan \theta = \frac{y_{A}-y_{O}}{x_{A}-x_{O}} (1)

Where:

x_{A}, x_{O} - x-Coordinates of point A and point O.

y_{A}, y_{O} - y-Coordinates of point A and point O.

If we know that x_{A} = -10, x_{O} = 0, y_{A} = 8 and y_{O} = 0, then the value of the tangent is:

\tan \theta = \frac{y_{A}-y_{O}}{x_{A}-x_{O}}

\tan \theta = \frac{8-0}{-10-0}

\tan \theta = -\frac{4}{5}

A group of college students are going to a lake house for the weekend and plan on renting small cars and large cars to make the
dangina [55]

The system of equations that could be used to determine the number of small cars rented and the number of large cars rented is;

x + y = 10

x + y = 105x + 7y = 66

<h3>Simultaneous equation</h3>

  • Small car = 5 people
  • Large car = 7 people
  • Total cars = 10
  • Total number of people = 66

Let

Number of small cars rented = x

Number of large cars rented = y

x + y = 10

x + y = 105x + 7y = 66
