Find the slope (m) and y-intercept (b) for
y = 4x - 8.

the slope, m, is 4 and that the y-intercept, b, is -8

Step-by-step explanation:

Compare the given equation to the slope-intercept form y = mx + b.  Here we see that the slope, m, is 4 and that the y-intercept, b, is -8.

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
