Answer:
(b) the unknown angle is 80°
Step-by-step explanation:
The unkown angle is:
[2(x-10)]°
Substituting "x" by 50 (part a)
[2(50-10)]°=[2(40)]°=80°
Answer:
y = -0.5x - 2
Step-by-step explanation:
equation: f(x) = mx + b
f(-4) : -4m + b = 0 ...(1)
f(0): 0m + b = -2 b = -2 ... plug in (1)
-4m - 2 = 0
m = - 1/2 = - 0.5
linear equation: y = -0.5x - 2
We see that the area is 159 3/8 and the length is 18 3/4.
Because the area is the length*width, to find the width, we must divide the area by the length.
Think of it this way:

Divide l on both sides:

And w is what we're looking for.
So, divide 159 3/8 by 18 3/4.
You should get that the width is 8.5 feet :)
The constant in an equation would be the number multiplied to x,
In the equation y - 6.7x, the constant would be 6.7
