Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 4 = 5x - 8

==> add 8 to both sides

in doing so we get 3x + 4 + 8 = 5x - 8 + 8

the -8 and the +8 cancels out and 4 + 8 = 12

we are left with 3x + 12 = 5x

==> subtract 3x from both sides

in doing so we get 3x - 3x + 12 = 5x - 3x

the 3x and -3x cancel out and 5x - 3x = 2x

we are left with 12 = 2x

==> divide both sides by 2

in doing so we get 12/2 which equals 6 and 2x/2x which leaves us with

6 = x

I need answer and explanation for this please

Answer:

slice priced $1.50 is better value

Step-by-step explanation:

Angles around a point add up to 360°

Area of a circle = πr²

360° ÷ 60° = 6

⇒ This slice is 1/6 of the whole pizza

⇒ area of the slice = (1/6)π × 6² = 6π in²

⇒ $1.50 ÷ 6π = $0.079577... per in²

360° ÷ 45° = 8

⇒ This slice is 1/8 of the whole pizza

⇒ area of the slice = (1/8)π × 7² = (49/8)π in²

⇒ $1.70 ÷ (49/8)π = $0.088347.. per in²

Therefore, the slice priced $1.50 is cheaper per in²

A) From where Jacob and his family have set up camp to the base of the mountain is 2,000 feet.
Vilka [71]

Answer:

A.) 2752.8 feet

B.) 5044.3 feet

C.) 6182.9 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

A.) Given that the camp to the base of the mountain is 2,000 feet. And the angle of elevation is 54 degrees

Using SohCahToa, to calculate the height

Tan 54 = height/2000

Height = 2000 tan54 = 2752.8 feet

B.) Given that the base of the mountain is 2600 feet wide.

Let use pythagorean theorem to find the slant length

Adjacent = 2600/2 = 1300 feet

Slant length = root ( 1300^2 + 2752.8^2)

Slant length = 3044.3 feet

The total distance that Jacob and his dad hiked from their campsite to the top of the mountain will be

3044.3 + 2000 = 5044.3 feet

C.) Given that the angle of depression is 24 degrees while the height is 2752.8 feet

Using pythagorean theorem again

Tan 24 = 2752.8/distance

Distance = 2752.8/tan24

Distance = 6182.9 feet
