Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer: The relationship is linear. The equation is y = 2x + 19
Discussion:
When x changes from -7 to -5 ( and increment of of +2), y changes from 5 to 9 ( an increment of +4). When x changes from 5 to -3 (an increment of +2) , y changes from 9 to 13 (an increment of +4)... and so on.....
So far, when x changes by 2, y changes by 4. This means the data falls on a line (so is linear). In fact,
(change in y) / (change in x) = 4/2 = 2 = slope of line.
so y = 2x + b. As the line passes through the point ( -7, 5)
5 = 2 (-7) + b or
5 = -14 + b or ( adding 14 to both sides)
5 + 14 = 19 = b.
Hence the equitation the line is y = 2x + 19
Thank you,

The length of the guy's wire to the nearest foot is 89 feet.
The situation forms a right-angled triangle.
<h3>Properties of a right angle triangle:</h3>
- A right-angle triangle has one angle of 90 degrees.
- The sides can be found using the Pythagoras theorem.
- The angles can be found using trigonometric ratios.
The hypotenuse of the triangle is the length of the wire.
let's use the smaller triangle to find the angle opposite the tower. Therefore,
tan ∅ = opposite / adjacent
tan ∅ = 5 / 2
∅ = tan⁻¹ 2.5
∅ = 68.1985905136
∅ = 68.20°
Therefore,
cos 68.20 = adjacent / hypotenuse
cos 68.20 = 33 / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = 33 / cos 68.20
hypotenuse = 88.8606843161
Therefore,
length of wire ≈ 89 feet.

First subtract the two numbers:
8 - 5 = 3
Now divide this to the original:
3 / 5 = 0.6
Multiply by 100:
0.6 * 100 = 60%
