Diana works in a building that is 130 feet tall. She is outside, looking up at the building at an angle of 37° from her feet to

the top of the building.  If Diana walks forward and her angle looking to the top of the building changes to 40°, how much closer is she to the building? Round the answer to the nearest tenth of a foot. 10.3 ft 17.6 ft 30.2 ft 97.2 ft

Let x be her initial distance from the building, then tan 37 = 130/x
x = 130/tan 37 = 130/0.7536 = 172.5 feet

Let y be her distance from the building after moving forward, then
tan 40 = 130/y
y = 130/tan 40 = 130/0.8391 = 154.9

After moving forward, she is 172.5 - 154.9 = 17.6 ft closer.

skip count 3 times by hundreds. skip count 2 times bytens. there is a 9 in the ones place. the number is?
Westkost [7]
3 times 100 is 300. 2 times 10 is 20. Since there is a 9 in the ones place, the number must be 329.

Find the equation of the line passing through the point (2,−4) that is parallel to the line y=3x+2
Naily [24]

Hey there! :)

Line passes through (2, -4) & parallel to y = 3x+ 2

Let's start off by identifying what our slope is. In the slope-intercept form y=mx+b, we know that "m" is our slope. "M" is simply a place mat so if we look at our given line, the "m" value is 3. Therefore, our slope is 3.

We should also note that we're looking for a line that's parallel to the given one. This means that our new line has the same slope as our given line. Therefore, our slope for our new line will be 3.

Now, we use point-slope form ( y-y₁=m(x-x₁) ) to complete our task of finding a line that passes through (2, -4) with a slope of 3.

y-y₁=m(x-x₁)

Let's start by plugging in 3 for m (our slope), 2 for x1 and -4 for y1.

y - (-4) = 3(x - 2)

Simplify.

y + 4 = 3x - 6

Simplify by subtracting 4 from both sides.

y = 3x - 10

~Hope I helped!~
