Parallel to 7x+8y=-40 and goes through (16, -12)

7x + 8y = 16

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to get the slope of the given line.  

The line is in standard form ax + by = c

The slope = -a/b.  (That's a little formula you can use to find the slope when the line is in standard form)

In this problem,  m = - 7/8

Since the line we are trying to find is parallel, it has a slope of -7/8

Now use the point-slope form

y - (-12) = -7/8(x - 16)    Multiply thru by 8 to remove the fractions

8(y + 12) = -7(x - 16)

8y + 96 = - 7x + 112

7x + 8y = 16

here you hope this .

step-by-step explanation:

hypotenuse = √(15² + 8²)

=  √(225 +64)

=  √(289) = 17

sin(x) = cos(y) = 8/17

they are identical so long as you are doing the sine of one angle and the cosine of the only other angle that isn't the right angle.

the answer is 48m^2!
