Hi there!

We can use right-triangle trigonometry to solve.

We are given the HYPOTENUSE and ADJACENT sides, so we must use cosine in this instance.

cosθ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse

We can plug in what is given:

cos(28) = A/17

Solve for 'A':

17cos(28) = <u>15.01 ft</u>

Please help asap 25 pts
natulia [17]

Answer:

C and D

Step-by-step explanation:

in equations y=4x+9 and y=4x-9 you have the same slope (4) so paralleling is guaranteed.

y=9 and y=18 you can understand as y=0x+9 and y=0x+18, so in this situation you have the same slope (0), so lines y=9 and y=18 are parallel too.

What is the slope-intercept form of this equation?
quester [9]
8X+6Y=12

Here's how you solve it:

Just isolate y by itself to get y-intercept form.
This is the formula: Y=MX+B

M is the slope or the number next to X in the original problem.

First:
6Y=-8X+12

Next:
divided everything by 6

Y=-4/3+2

I think the answer is A!
