Answer:
The y-intercept of the line is 2
Step-by-step explanation:
You could try to find the slope of the line and then find the intercept with y axis by sloving b = y - ax
But here it seems easy enough once you see that the x values in the table increase by a factor of 8 and the y values in the table increase by a factor of 20.
(By the way, this is enough to give you the slope, because it is 8/20 ). But why bother?
Just extrapolate the table to the left, and you will find the y value where x = 0
x 0 8 16 24 32
y 2 22 44 64 84
So the y-intercept of the line is 2.
Extra:
The full equation of the line is:
y = 8/20x + 2
The problem says that <span>Brandon sights a helicopter above a building that is 200 feet away at an angle of elevation of 30 degrees. So, you can calculate the height asked, by following this procedure:
</span>
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
α=30°
Opposite leg=x
Adjacent leg=200 feet
When you substitute these values into the formula above (Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg), you have:
Tan(α)=Opposite leg/Adjacent leg
Tan(30°)=x/200
You must clear "x":
x=200xTan(30°)
Therefore, the value of "x" is:
x=115 feet
<span>
How high above the ground the is the helicopter?
The answer is: 115 feet</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
m∠1= 79
Step-by-step explanation:
What we have here is two vertical lines and one intersecting point.
The m∠1 and m∠6 are vertical angles, which means that they equal to each other. So, the equation would be: 6x+25= 10x-11.
Step 1- Subtract 6x to both sides.
6x+25= 10x-11
-6x -6x
25= 4x-11
Step 2- Add 11 to both sides.
25= 4x-11
+11 +11
36= 4x
Step 3- Divide both sides by 4.
<u>36</u>= <u>4x</u>
4 4
x= 9
Now that we know the value of the variable x, substitute it into the equation for m∠1.
m∠1= 10(9)-11
m∠1= 90-11
m∠= 79
<u>Check </u>
m∠6= 6(9)+25
m∠6= 54+25
m∠6= 79
Since m∠1 and m∠6 are vertical angles, they should equal each other.
