Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5(x + 4) – 3 = 4.5(x – 2)

Distributive property

1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9

1.5x - 4.5x = -9 -3

-3x = -12

  x = 4

Expand

1.5x + 6 - 3 = 4.5x - 9

Simplify 1.5x + 6 - 3 to 1.5x + 3

1.5x + 3 = 4.5x - 9

Subtract 1.5x from both sideds

3 = 4.5x - 9 - 1.5x

Simplify 4.5x - 9 - 1.5x to 3x - 9

3 = 3x - 9

Add 9 to both sides

3 + 9 = 3x

Simplify 3 + 9 to 12

12 = 3x

Divide both sides by 3

12/3 = x

Simplify 12/3 to 4

4 = x

Switch sides

<u>x = 4</u>

Hello,
I am not doing that with sin, cos and pythagorean theorem.

DEFINITION: we call TAN x=sin x / cos x
This means that in a right triangle the tangent of an angle is the ration of opposed side by adjacent side.

11: tan 8°=12.5/d
==>d=12.5/tan 8°=12.5/0.14054...=88.942121...m≈88.9 (m)

12:
tan 28°=h/420
==>h=420*tan 28°=420*0.5317...=223.3179...≈223.3 (m)

It's the 3rd option. All your doing to me, is adding all the numbers straight down. I think you meant to write it like this: 8x² - x - 4

Svetllana [295]
To find the average miles they drove each day, divide the total amount of miles by the number of days they drove.

1246 / 14 = 89

The Tran Family drove an average of 89 miles every day.
