The parallel line:
y = mx + c
y = 5/7x + 7

Gradient of parallel line = 5/7

y = mx + c
y = 5/7x + c
-2 = (5/7 x -5) + c
-2 = -25/7 + c
-2 + 25/7 = c
c = 11/7

y = 5/7x + 11/7

The perpendicular line
y = mx + c
y = 5/7x + c
m = 5/7

Gradient of perpendicular line = -1/(5/7) = -7/5

y = mx + c
y = -7/5x + c
-2 = (-7/5 x -5) + c
-2 = 7 + c
-2 - 7 = c
c = -9

y = -7/5x - 9

Plot the data for the functions f(x) and g(x) on a grid
wariber [46]
The graph (by some miracle) has been uploaded for you. It is just about the first time I've done this sort of thing, and I've answered nearly 800 questions. 

The first thing you have to do is study the graph. The two functions are
f(x) = 4^x That's the curved graph. (in red)
g(x) = x + 4. That's the straight line. (in blue)

You know that the first one is not a linear relationship because the x values go from integer values -2 to 2 (including 0). The y values are a bit different. They go from 1/16 to 16 with those integer values. So you could try y = 4^(-x). It doesn't work, but you could try it. It gives the table numbers for y in the reverse order that the table you are given goes. For x you get -2 -1 0 1 2 and for y you would get 16 4 1 1/4 1/16.

You could try y = (1/4)^x
For this try, you would get x = -2 -1 0 1 2 and for y = 16 4 0 1/4 and 1/16 
but that doesn't work either.

You could try until you get y = 4^x which does work.

g(x) is a lot easier to deal with. It looks better behaved. as x goes up, so does y. You will find that the y values obey y = x + 4. You could try other lines, but that one works. Many times it's just a guess

Los Angeles Airport bears 140 degrees from San Francisco Airport and is 540 km away. A pilot is planning a direct flight from Sa
Roman55 [17]
Create a triangle starting with the length of 540 coming out of SF to LA bearing 140.
This looks like it leaves SF in IV quadrant and enters LA in II quadrant. The wind will take the plane more to the east (right).  Therefore the pilot must aim to the west (left) in order for the wind to push it to the intended destination of LA. The second side of the triangle should come out of LA from the II quadrant bearing 290.  The length of this side is 60t (60 km/h * t = time flying).  The third side of the triangle connects the first two.  There for it comes out of SF at some unknown angle > 140 and connects with the 60t side.  The length of this third leg is 640t. (640 km/h * t = time flying).  The angle between the 540 side and the 60t side is 30.  This is found because the 540 side enters LA in 2nd quadrant as 130 angle .  The 60t side enters LA in 2nd quadrant as 160 angle.  Using law of sin's: sin 30/640t = sin x/60t.  The t's cancel and you are left with sin x = 3/64.  When solving for the angle x you get x = 2.6867 degrees.  Adding this to the bearing of 140, the compass bearing should be 142.6867 or 142.7 degrees.  To find the value of t, you use the law of sin's to get sin 30/640t = (sin (180 - 30 - 2.6867))/540.  Solving for t gives you: t = .7811.  This is in hours.  To convert to minutes multiply by 60 to get t = 46.87 minutes.  Add this to the 2pm departure time to get 2:47 pm arrival time.

What is the solution to inequality of[9n-9]+10=7​
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

n = 2/3

Step-by-step explanation:

[9n-9]+10=7​

Subtract 10 from each side

9n -9+10-10 =7-10

9n -9 = -3

Add 9 to each side

9n -9+9 = -3+9

9n = 6

Divide by 9

9n/9 = 6/9

n = 2/3
