Answer:

y = 8√3

Step-by-step explanation:

In the 30°-60°-90° "special" triangle, the ratio of sides lengths is ...

1 : √3 : 2 = 8 : y : hypotenuse

In order for these ratios to be equal, we must have ...

y = 8√3

If you want to solve this using your trig skills, you recognize that ...

Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

tan(30°) = 8/y

y = 8/tan(30°) . . . . where tan(30°) = 1/√3

y = 8√3

Can someone help me with these 2 questions please???

Answer:

See step-by-step explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first question, you simply put an EMPTY circle above 2 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we put an empty circle is because there is no equal sign below it.

For the second question, you put a FILLED circle above 4 and draw an arrow from it all the way down to -3. The reason why we use a filled circle is because x is less than OR equal to 4.

He spelled 6 correctly

Write your answer with no space and any fraction with “/“

Answer:

y+3=2(x-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Point-slope form is $y-y_1 = m (x-x_1)$ . In order to write a linear equation using this form, the $y_1$ , $x_1$ and $m$ must be substituted by real numbers.

The $m$ represents the slope of the equation. We know that the answer has to be parallel to the line y=2x-1. y=2x-1 is already in slope-intercept form, or $y=mx+b$ , in which $m$ represents the slope. We can see that the $2$ is in place of that $m$ , therefore 2 is the slope of y=2x-1. Lines that are parallel have the same slope, so we know that the slope of the new equation must be 2 as well.

The $x_1$ and $y_1$ represent the x and y values of one point that the line passes through. We know that the new equation must pass through the point (1, -3), so we'll substitute 1 in place of the $x_1$ and -3 in place of the $y_1$ .

Substituting for those three values will give you an equation like this, therefore it is the answer:

$y-(-3)= 2(x-(1))$

$y+3= 2(x-1)$
