A boat heading out to sea starts out at Point A A, at a horizontal distance of 862 feet from a lighthouse/the shore. From that p

oint, the boat’s crew measures the angle of elevation to the lighthouse’s beacon-light from that point to be 15 ∘ ∘ . At some later time, the crew measures the angle of elevation from point B B to be 8 ∘ ∘ . Find the distance from point A A to point B B. Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a foot if necessary.

The table of values below represents a linear relationship.
Yuki888 [10]

Given:

The table of values.

To find:

The slope and y-intercept for this line.

Solution:

From the given table, we have three (-4,6), (0,3), (4,0).

We need to find the slope and y-intercept for this line.

Consider any two points from the given points.

Consider the line passes through the points (0,3) and (4,0). So, the slope of the line is:

m=\dfrac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

m=\dfrac{0-3}{4-0}

m=\dfrac{-3}{4}

The line passes through the point (0,3). Here the x-coordinate is 0. So, the y-intercept is 3.

Therefore, the slope of the line is \dfrac{-3}{4} and the y-intercept of the line is 3.

A line segment has a midpoint of (-3,2) and an endpoint of (-6,4). What is the other endpoint of the line segment?
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]
Lets take the x and the y values individually.
So the endpoint x is -6 and the midpoint x is -3. The difference between the two is 3 values. 
So if -6 is one end of x, then -3+3 will be the other end, which will be 0
The x value of the other endpoint is 0.
Now lets look at the y value. The endpoint is 4 and the midpoint is 2. The difference between the two is 2 values.
So if 4 is one end of y, then the other end of y will be 2-2= 0.
So the y value of the other endpoint is 0.
SO the coordinates of the other endpoint will be (0,0)
