First calculate the function of x-2y=6:
x-2y=6 | - x
-2y=6-x | ÷ (-2)
y=0.5x-3
Now you have the function. Because the slope you search is parallel to this one, the slope is the same (in this case 0.5). A slope of 0.5 means for 2 steps to the right go one up. To define the function you are searching you have to find out the y intercept. For this take your point (-2|4). Now go as many steps to the right until you reach the y intercept or x=0 in this case you need 2 steps. So for 2 steps right you go one up. Now you have the y intercept (5).
The resulting function is: f(x) = 0.5+6.
I think I might have my math wrong here but I think 5
Tan^-1 (tan x) = 42/25
x=tan^-1 42/25
x= 59.237 degrees.
Answer:
SO THE FIRST ANSWER IS 540 FEET AND THE SECOND ANSWER IS YEA U CAN
X=Marks sister's age
x+11= Marks age
x+11 +8 = 2x+8
x+19=2x +8
x+19-x=2x-x +8
19-8=x+8-8
11=x Marks sisters age in 8 years
11-8= 3 Marks sisters age now
x+11=22 Marks age in 8 years
22-8= 14 Marks age now
