Answer:
x = 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 3 from both sides
p.s. it would be 18 if it was x-3 = 15
Answer:
The regular price of the balls is $8
Step-by-step explanation:
The sporting goods store sales promotion is as follows;
The price of the third ball after buying two balls at regular price = $1.00
The price of the number of balls Coach John pays for the balls he bought = $136
To buy 24 balls, we have;
2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 1
Therefore;
The number of balls bought at regular price = The sum of the 2s = 16 balls
The number of balls bought for $1 = 24 - 16 = 8 balls
Let x represent the regular price of the balls, we have;
16 × x + 8 = 136
16·x = 138 - 8 = 128
x = 128/16 = 8
The regular price of the balls = x = $8.
Answer:
11.820 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The mnemonic SOH CAH TOA reminds you that ...
Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse
The length of the ladder is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with 52° as the base angle. The side opposite is the height up the building where the top of the ladder rests. So, you have the relation ...
sin(52°) = height/(15 ft)
Multiplying by the denominator gives you ...
height = (15 ft)·sin(52°) ≈ 11.820 ft
___
You may need to round this number appropriately.
22 feet. Using the sine rule theory: 20/sin(65)=x/sin(90). You know that it's 90 degrees because you assume the ground and the building make a 90 degree angle. So, you cross multiply and get 20sin(90)/xsin(65) and solve for x.
