You have to use distributive property. Multiply the numbers outside of the parenthesis by the numbers inside. For example, you would multiply 0.4 by 2x first, then multiply it by 1/2. You should get two answers. Write them down in this form: first answer + second answer. Then do the same for the other side of the equal sign, but leave the - 4 alone.

Solve for x and y please!

Answers

Answer:

x = 8

y=2√(3)

Step-by-step explanation:

The figure is composed of 3 Right triangles. To find the values of the variables x and y we use the Pythagorean theorem to propose one equation.

x^2 =4^2 + (4√(3))^2

 Now we solve for x

x=\sqrt{4^2 + (4√(3))^2}

x=√(16 +16*3)\n\nx=√(64)\n\nx=8

Let's call z at the angle opposite to y

Then we have that:

sin(z) =(opposite)/(hypotenuse)

Where

hypotenuse = 8

opposite=4

sin(z) =(4)/(8)

z=sin^(-1)((1)/(2))

z=30

Now we use this angle to find the length y

sin(z) =(opposite)/(hypotenuse)

Where in this case

hypotenuse = 4√(3)

opposite=y

z=\°30

sin(30\°) =(y)/(4√(3))

y=sin(30\°)*4√(3)

y=2√(3)

Which of these is a point-slope equation of the line that is perpendicular to y-3=4(x-10) and passes through (-3,7)?A. y+7= -1/4(x-3)
B. y-7= -1/4(x+3)
C.y+7= 4(x-3)
D.y-7= -4(x+3)

Answers

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The point slope form of a line is (y-y_1)=m(x-x_1) where x_1=-3\ny_1=7. We can find the slope which is perpendicular to the slope of 4 in the equation y=4(x-10). Perpendicular slope is the negative reciprocal which is -1/4.

We write  

(y-7)=-(1)/(4)(x--3)\n(y-7)=-(1)/(4)(x+3)
