2x-8=12
First you add 8 to both sides...
2x = 20
Then you divide each side by 2...
x = 20
Done

Wrong things...
- did not do the same thing to the entire side of each side
- wrong multiplication choice

$2x-8=12\ \ \ \ |\cdot\dfrac{1}{2}\\\\\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)2x-\left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right)8=12\ \ \ |\text{here you have the mistake}\\\\\\\boxed{\text{The multiplication property of equality was not applied correctly.}}$

In the diagram the radius of the outer circle is 2x cm and the radius of the inner circle is 6 cm. The area of the shaded region

stich3 [128]

let's find the area of the outer circle and the inside circle

the inside's circle area

A= π x 6²=36π

the outer's

A' = π x 4x²= 4πx²

A'-A=4πx²- 36π=160πcm² equivalent to x²- 9=40, so x²=49 implies x =sqrt(49)=7, x=7.

10.) Kelly is flying a kite to which the angle of elevation is

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

61.08m

Step-by-step explanation:

Let " l " be the length of the rope and " θ " the angle at which it is raised. In other words:

l = 65m
θ = 70°

As you can see, there has been made a right angle triangle. So:

$sin70 = \frac{h}{l} \\ h = l \times sin70 \\ h = 65 \times 0.9397 = 61.08 \\ h = 61.08$

So the kite is approximately 61.08m above the ground.

In order to find the sin70° i used a calculator.
