You’re trying to find x which is the side opposite to the angle. You’re given the adjacent angle. To find the variable, you use tangent. So you plug in tan(x)= opposite/adjacent. In this case it would be tan(27)=x/15. Then you multiply both sides by 15 to be 15(tan(27))=x which is 7.6=x

PLZZZZ HELP What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is 3y=−4x+2 ?

earnstyle [38]

$\bf 3y=-4x+2\implies y=\cfrac{-4x+2}{3} \\\\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{slope}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{4}{3}}x+\cfrac{2}{3}\impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}$

so the slope of that line above is really -4/3, now

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{4}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{3}{4}\implies \blacktriangleright \cfrac{3}{4} \blacktriangleleft}}$

zhuklara [117]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sara's base pay is $80

(a) The 9t represents the additional amount of money that she earns if she gives instruction for t hours. 9 stands for $9 per hour

b)The term in the expression is t which stands for the number of hours that she instructs. The coefficient is 9 which stands for the hourly rate

c) The expression for 7 hours would be

We will substitute t into 80 + 9t. It becomes

80 + 9×7

d) in all, she will earn

80 + 9×7 = $143
