Answer:

12.686cm

Step-by-step explanation:

By using pythagoras, we can find CB.

We know that $a^2+b^2=c^2$

Therefore, $12^2-6^2=CB^2$

$CB=\sqrt{108}$ (it has to be positive since it is distance)

now we look at triangle BCD and use SOH CAH TOA.

$Sin55=CB/CD\\Therefore, CD= 12.686$

On a coordinate plane, a line has points (negative 2, negative 4) and (4, 2). Point P is at (0, 4). Which points lie on the line

NikAS [45]

Answer:

the correct options are:

(–1, 3), (–2, 2) and (–5, –1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a line passes through two points

A(-2, -4) and B(4, 2)

Another point P(0, 4)

To find:

Which points lie on the line that passes through P and is parallel to line AB ?

Solution:

First of all, let us the find the equation of the line which is parallel to AB and passes through point P.

Parallel lines have the same slope.

Slope of a line is given as:

$m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$m=\dfrac{2-(-4)}{4-(-2)} = 1$

Now, using slope intercept form ( $y = mx+c$ ) of a line, we can write the equation of line parallel to AB:

$y =(1)x+c \Rightarrow y = x+c$

Now, putting the point P(0,4) to find c:

$4 = 0 +c \Rightarrow c = 4$

So, the equation is $\bold{y=x+4}$

So, the coordinates given in the options which have value of y coordinate equal to 4 greater than x coordinate will be true.

So, the correct options are:

(–1, 3), (–2, 2) and (–5, –1)

After the booster club sold 40 hotdogs at a football game, it had $90 in profit. After the next game, it had sold a total of 80

Ainat [17]

We can model the equation:y = m x + b, where y is the total profit and x is the number of hotdogs sold.The system of equations is:
90 = 40 m + b210 = 80 m + b---------------------b = 90 - 40 m210 = 80 m + 90 - 40 m210 - 90 = 40 m120 = 40 mm = 120 : 40m = 3b = 90 - 40*3b = 90 - 120b = - 30Answer: The equation is y = 3 x - 30
