2(3x-4) = 5x+6
First, expand the bracket.
6x-8=5x+6
Next, move the variables to the same side.
x-8=6
Move the -8 to the other side, change to +
x=6+8
x=14
Charlie’s solution is incorrect. When expanding the bracket, he changed the - to a +.

What is the length of the altitude of the equilateral triangle below
ale4655 [162]
Using Sine.

Sine = Opposite / Hypotenuse

sin 60° = a / (6√3)                        But sin60° = √3/2

√3/2 = a/(6√3)

Cross multiply

2*a = 6√3 * √3

2a = 6 * √(3*3)

2a = 6*3

a = 6*3/2

a = 3*3 = 9

Option E.

Hope this helps.
