Answer: Choice A, x=-4
Step-by-step explanation:
1. 9x−(3x+9)=2x−25
2. 9x-3x-9=2x-25
3. 6x-9=2x-25
4. 6x-9=2x-25
-2x -2x
5. 4x-9=-25
+9 +9
6. 4x=-16 (divide both sides by 4)
7. x=-4
Answer:
(a) 169.1 m
Step-by-step explanation:
The diagram shows you the distance (x) will be shorter than 170 m, but almost that length. The only reasonable answer choice is ...
169.1 m
__
The relevant trig relation is ...
Cos = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
The leg of the right triangle adjacent to the marked angle is x, and the hypotenuse is 170 m. Putting these values into the equation, you have ...
cos(6°) = x/(170 m)
x = (170 m)cos(6°) ≈ (170 m)(0.994522) ≈ 169.069 m
The horizontal distance covered is about 169.1 meters.

<em>Additional comment</em>
Expressed as a percentage, the slope of this hill is tan(6°) ≈ 10.5%. It would be considered to be a pretty steep hill for driving.
X = total amount paid
y = number of tickets
z = number of bags
your equation:
x = 10y + 5z + 3

Including Jamiz, there are 14 girls in the class. If this if half of the total number of pupils (as half are girls, the other half being boys) the total number of students is 14 × 2 = 28 students
