Use trigonometry to solve for x.
The tangent function is defined to be opposite side divided by the adjacent side.
tan(78) = x/10
tan(78)(10) = x
47.0463010948 = x
We now round off to two decimal places. In other words, we round off to the nearest tenths.
47.05 = x

15, 17, 19, and 21
Step-by-step explanation:
make the equation
x+x+2+x+4+x+6=72
simplify
4x+12=72
x+3=18
x=15
Step-by-step explanation:
Molly ran 1/4 of a mile in 1 minute, i.e.
1/4 mile : 1 minute
Multiply both sides by 4 to get time for one mile
1 mile : 4 minutes
Multiply by 4 again to get time for 4 miles
4 miles = 4*4 = 16 minutes.
So it takes Molly 16 minutes to run four miles.
