Answer:

m2 = - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract x from both sides of the equation

-y = - x - 3

Divide by - 1

-y/-1 = -x/-1 - 3/-1

y = x + 3

The slope of the line we were given is 1. The 1 is in front of the x

m1 * m2 = - 1

m1 = 1

1*m2 = - 1

m2 = - 1

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

For item 2:

The Net Price Rate = 276 / 460 = 0.60 = 60 % (answer).

Item 3: Net Price Rate = 3247 * 100 / 3820 = 85% (answer).

Item 4 Net Price Rate = 675.11 / * 100 / 987 = 68.4%. (answer).

Item 5 Item's Net Price = 987 * 0.675 = $666.23 (answer).

Item 7 Net price Rate = 2945* 100 / 4750 = 62%. (answer).

Item 8: First find the list place $x:

0.90* 0.80 * 0.70x = 252 ( the 0.90 , 0.80 and 0.70 come from 100 - 10% = 1 - 0.10 = 0.90 and so on)

0.504 x = 252

x = $500

Answer is List Price = $500 and Net Price Rate = 50.4%.

Item 10 List price = 2890.65 / 0.35 = $8259. (answer)

Ms. Mwanted to estimate the height of the Republic Plaza building in downtown Denver. She has an app on

Volgvan

Answer:

<em>The height of the bullding is 717 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Right Triangles</u>

The trigonometric ratios (sine, cosine, tangent, etc.) are defined as relations between the triangle's side lengths.

The tangent ratio for an internal angle A is:

$\displaystyle \tan A=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}$

The image below shows the situation where Ms. M wanted to estimate the height of the Republic Plaza building in downtown Denver.

The angle A is given by his phone's app as A= 82° and the distance from her location and the building is 100 ft. The angle formed by the building and the ground is 90°, thus the tangent ratio must be satisfied. The distance h is the opposite leg to angle A and 100 ft is the adjacent leg, thus:

$\displaystyle \tan 82^\circ=\frac{h}{100}$
