Answer:

The equation of any straight line, called a linear equation, can be written as: y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. The y-intercept of this line is the value of y at the point where the line crosses the y axis.

Solve for r and t: 6r - 3t = 6 6r + 8t = -16

MAVERICK [17]

Multiply the first equation with (-1)
you should get this

-6r + 3t = -6
6r + 8t = -16

start to eliminate

11t = -22

divide by 11

t = -2

substitute

6r - 3(-2) = 6
6r + 6 = 6
6r = 6 - 6
6r = 0
r=0

Suppose that you are headed toward a plataeu 70m high. If the angle of elevation to the top of the platau is 35 degree how far a

SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

The distance you are from the base of plateau = $99.97\ m\approx 100\ m$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height of plateau = 70 m

Angle of elevation to the top of plateau = 35°

To find the distance you are from the base of plateau.

We will construct a triangle ABC to model the given situation. The triangle would be a right triangle for which we know an angle and its opposite side. We need to find the adjacent side of the triangle.

We will apply trigonometric ratio to find the adjacent side.

$\tan\theta=\frac{Opposite\ Side}{Adjacent\ Side}$
