Answer:

x ≈ 8.7

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine ratio in the right triangle

sin75° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{RS}{QS}$ = $\frac{x}{9}$ ( multiply both sides by 9 )

9 × sin75° = x , then

x ≈ 8.7 ( to the nearest tenth )

Which is the equation of Line B?

notka56 [123]

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b, with m = slope and b = y-intercept
Slope Formula: $\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

So firstly, to find the slope of this equation, plug the two points, (1,1) and (-3,2), into the slope formula and solve as such:

$\frac{1-2}{1-(-3)}=-\frac{1}{4}$

Next, plug either one of the points into the x and y coordinates to solve for b as such:

$2=-\frac{1}{4}*-3+b\\2=\frac{3}{4}+b\\\frac{5}{4}=b$

<u>Our final equation is $y=-\frac{1}{4}x+\frac{5}{4}$ , or the third option.</u>

Solve by any method <br> y= -7x+10<br> y= -3x+6

AnnyKZ [126]

Y=1
To get it, you use the method of substitution. So you swtich the top y by the equation of the bottom=-3x+6=-7x+10. You first add 7x to each side=4x+6=10 then you minus 6 from each side=4x=4 which is 1

Find the dimensions of an American football field. The length is 200 ft more than the width, and the perimeter is 1,040 ft. Find

natka813 [3]

Answer:

The width of the football field is 160 feet.

The length of the football field is 360 feet.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let w represent width of the football field.

We have been given that the length is 200 ft more than the width, so the length of the field would be $w+200$ .

We are also told that the perimeter is 1,040 ft. We know that football field is in form of rectangle, so perimeter of field would be 1 times the sum of length and width. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$2(w+w+200)=1040$
