Answer:

b= -1/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Though a variable's sign changes when it is multiplied by -1, its absolute value does not. Therefore, we can eliminate the 1:

1/5+b=0

b+1-1/5=0-1/5

b+0/5= 0 -1/5

b=0 -1/5

and you have b= -1/5 as your answer

Sin A tan A/ 1 - cos A = 1+ sec A

aalyn [17]

$\text{L.H.S}\\\\=\dfrac{\sin A \tan A}{1- \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\sin A \cdot \tfrac{\sin A}{\cos A} }{ 1- \cos A}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;\left[\tan A = \dfrac{\sin A }{\cos A}\right]\\\\\\=\dfrac{\tfrac{\sin^2 A}{ \cos A}}{1- \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{\sin^2 A}{\cos A(1-\cos A)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1-\cos^2 A}{\cos A( 1- \cos A)}~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~;[\sin^2 A + \cos^2 A = 1]\\\\\\$

$=\dfrac{(1+ \cos A)(1 - \cos A)}{\cos A(1 - \cos A)}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1+ \cos A}{ \cos A}\\\\\\=\dfrac{1}{\cos A} + \dfrac{\cos A}{ \cos A}\\\\\\=\sec A + 1 \\\\\\=1+ \sec A\\\\\\=\text{R.H.S}\\\\\text{Proved.}$

What is the slope of (-1,-7) (1,5)

vodka [1.7K]

To find slope, use the form y1 - y2/x1 - x2. Using these points, that would look like:
-7 - 5/-1 - 1 or -12/-2, which simplifies to 6.
The slope is 6. Hope this helps with slope.
