Answer:

y = -6/5x + 13 4/5

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Perpendicular slope

We need to find the perpendicular slope, or the opposite reciprocal.

This means we change the sign (positive, negative)and flip the numbers

Perpendicular sope to 5/6x = -5/6x = -6/5x

Step 2: Plug in coordinates

Now we plug in the coordinates for y = -6/5x + b

3 = -6/5(9) + b

3 = -10.8 + b

b = 13.8 or 13 4/5

What is the approximate value of k?
lesya692 [45]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

5.06

Discussion:

Angle J = 180 - (120 + 40) = 180 - 160 = 20 degrees,

From the law of sines

sin(120)/k = sin(20)/2  =>

sin(120) =  k *  (  sin(20)/2) )                (multiply both sides by "k")

k = sin(120)/  (   sin(20)/2)                    (divide both sides by sin(20)/2)

k =  (0.866) /  ( 0.171) =  5.06


Regards,  

MrB

 P.S.  I'll be on vacation from Friday, Dec 22 to Jan 2, 2019. Have a Great New Year!
