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

Write the equation of the line with a slope of 1/6 that contains (12,-7)

tatiyna

$\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{12}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{-7})~\hspace{10em} slope = m\implies \cfrac{1}{6} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-(-7)=\cfrac{1}{6}(x-12) \\\\\\ y+7=\cfrac{1}{6}x-2\implies y=\cfrac{1}{6}x-9$

Turn .125 to a proper fraction

klio [65]

Answer:

25/200

Step-by-step explanation:

Start by multiplying both the top and bottom by 1,000, to get 125/1,000. Then simplify the fraction if you'd like to. For example, you should see that both the top and bottom are dividable by 5, so divide them each by 5 to get 25/200.

You and your mom enter a drawing with 3 different prizes. A total of 9 people entered the drawing, and prizes are awarded random

julsineya [31]

Answer:

$\frac{1}{72}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that there are total 9 people who entered the drawing competition. There are 3 prizes to be distributed to the winners. The total number of ways that 3 prizes can be awarded to the 9 people can be determined as 9*8*7 = 504.

The total number of ways in which I win the first prize and my mom wins the second prize would be 1*1*7 = 7.

Therefore, the probability that I win the first prize and my mom wins the second prize would be: $\frac{7}{504}=\frac{1}{72}$

Which two points have a undefined slope

allochka39001 [22]

Answer:

C.(-3, -3) and (-3,3)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we have a vertical line the slope is undefined.

That means the x values stay the same

C.(-3, -3) and (-3,3)

This has the same x values

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

=( 3- -3)/(-3 - -3)

(3+3)/(-3+3)

6/0

undefined
