N+3=5
n+3-3=5-3 (subtract 3 on both sides)
n=2
to check you substitute n with 2 and you get 2+3=5 (5=5)

So what they are telling you is that 5 is three higher than the variable n.
So n = 5-3
so n is 2.

What is the value of k?

Molodets [167]

Answer:

$( {x}^{2} + 16x + 64) - (x + 8)(x - 4) = k(x + 8) \\ ( {x + 8)}^{2} - (x + 8)(x - 4) = k(x + 8) \\ (x + 8) - (x - 4) = k \\ k = (x - x) + (8 + 4) \\ k = 12$

Express the area of the triangle shown below in terms of b and θ only.

Paul [167]

Given a right triangle with base, b and height, h with the angle opposide side h as θ.

The area of a triangle is given by
$A= \frac{1}{2} bh$

But,
$\tan\theta= \frac{h}{b} \\ \\ \Rightarrow h=b\tan\theta$

Therefore, the area of the triangle in terms of <span>b and θ only is given by
$A= \frac{1}{2} b(b\tan\theta)= \frac{1}{2} b^2\tan\theta$ </span>
