Answer: If you want mx + b= y form and you want the y intercept, then the answer would be 2x/7 - 12/7 = y. The y intercept is b, so it is 12/7.
Step-by-step explanation: 2x - 7y = 12
Move -7y to the other side: 2x= 12 + 7y
Subtract 12 to the left side: 2x - 12 = 7y
Then divide 7 into everything: 2x/7 - 12/7 = 7y/7
The 7s in the right side cancel out, so the equation is now: 2x/7 - 12/7 = y
The y intercept is b, which is the second term in the equation, so the
Y Equals : 12/7
I hope this is what you are looking for!
Answer: -12
Step-by-step explanation: use synthetic division
Answer:
y=-9x-1
Step-by-step explanation:
since it is perpendicular, the slope must be the opposite reciprocal (-9x) and now we plug the coordinates in, -1=0+b, b is -1
Answer:
0.4
Step-by-step explanation:
2/5 = 4/10
5 miles high is one of the sides of a triangle depending on accuracy level
h^2=x^2+y^2
we don't have 2 distances
Tan A=O/a
O=a tan A
We solve for O because the angle is at the top of the line going up and we want the opposite angle that is along the ground
O=5×tan(173.7/2)=90.854033512
The distance he can see is:
90.85*2~181.7 miles
Now we need to find the distance between lines:
The north south distance between each line is 69 miles
thus the number of degrees he will see will be:
181.7/69
=2 19/30
