What is x? 3(x - 4) - 14 = 2(x - 7) + 6

Mathematics
2 answers:
Yakvenalex [24]3 years ago

3(x - 4) - 14 = 2(x - 7) + 6
⇒ 3x+ 3(-4) -14= 2x+ 2*7+ 6 (distributive property)
⇒ 3x -12 -14= 2x -14+ 6
⇒ 3x+ (-12 -14)= 2x+ (-14+ 6) (combine like terms)
⇒ 3x -26= 2x -8
⇒ 3x -2x= -8+ 26 (inverse operation)
⇒ x= 18

Final answer: x= 18.

3(x - 4) - 14 = 2(x - 7) + 6 \\ \\ 3x - 12 - 14 = 2x - 14 + 6 \ / \ expand \\ \\ 3x - 26 = 2x - 14 + 6 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x - 26 = 2x - 8 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x = 2x - 8 + 26 \ / \ add \ 26 \ to \ each \ side \\ \\ 3x = 2x + 18 \ / \ simplify \\ \\ 3x - 2x = 18 \ / \ subtract \ 2x \ from \ each \ side \\ \\ x = 18 \ / \ simplify \\ \\

The final result is x = 18.

What is the relation between the trigonometric ratios tan(R) and tan(J)? Please answer ASAP!
Ilya [14]

Step-by-step explanation:

∆PQR similar to ∆ JKL

JK/KL= PQ/QR

6/12=3/QR

QR=3×2= 6

therefore, tan(R) = PQ/QR = 3/6=1/2

and, tan(J) = KL/JK =12/6=2

\frac{ \tan(R) }{ \tan(J) }  =  \frac{ \frac{1}{2} }{2}

\frac{ \tan(R) }{ \tan(J) }   =  \frac{1}{4}

tan(J)=4.tan(R)

option D

The height is??? I somehow got the width
EleoNora [17]

To find the maximum height, we must find the x value at which the maximum height occurs.

The maximum height occurs at x = 0 because that is where y is the largest.

When we plug x= 0 into the function that is given in the question, we get 630 ft.

Hope it helps!
