Answer:

The slope of a line is a number that measures its "steepness", usually denoted by the letter m. It is the change in y for a unit change in x along the line.

Hope it helps.

IN DESPERATE NEED OF HELP :(
Eddi Din [679]

So, the problem is asking for one of the equations to be rewritten. Lets rewrite the second one. The way to create a system of equations that will cancel is to create a situation where the a or b of both equations add to 0. In this case, we can multiply the second equation by 3 to turn the 3y into 9y.


3(-x + 3y) = (6)3

-3x + 9y = 18


Our new system is 4x - 9y =9 and -3x + 9y = 18. We can now add these together.


4x - 9y = 9

-3x + 9y = 18


Adding each part straight down, we get the equation:

x + 0 = 27


We now have an equation with a single variable, which also tells us that x is equal to 27.


Extra: To find the value of y after this, we merely need to plug in the value of x to one of the equations and solve for y.


-27 + 3y = 6

3y = 33

y = 11

a line in the coordinate plane has an angle of elevation of 53 degrees. Find the slope of the line correct to four decimal place
Sergeu [11.5K]
Let's make a reference triangle with the x and y axes as the legs of the right triangle. The hypotenuse is the slope where the angle of elevation is based. Given an angle of elevation of 53 degrees, the remaining angle is 37 degrees. Use sine law to calculate for the hypotenuse:

(sin 53/x) = (sin 37/y) = (sin 90/z)

solve for x, y and z. The slope is y/x

Plz help <br> Draw the following triangle after a counterclockwise rotation about the origin.
Scorpion4ik [409]
You have to swap to (x,y) to (y,x) and make the y negative so it would be (-y,x) and since it’s counterclockwise it would be in the 4th quadrant
