3x+2(x-1)=9x=4
We move all terms to the left:
3x+2(x-1)-(9x)=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-6x+2(x-1)=0
We multiply parentheses
-6x+2x-2=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
-4x-2=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
-4x=2
x=2/-4
x=-1/2
Q = -60 and P ≠ 32 will result in an equation with no solutions. (Both conditions must be met.)
_____
For Q = -60 and P = 32, there will be an infinite number of solutions. For any other values of Q and P, the solution is
.. x = (32 -P)/(Q +60)
16 n^2 -10n + 129 = 8n^2 -8
We collect the terms:
8n^2 -10n + 137 = 0
The steps for completing the square:
1) Move the "non X" (or "non N") term to the right:
8n^2 -10n = -137
<span>2)<span> Divide the equation by the coefficient of N² which in this case is 8
n^2 -1.2n = </span></span><span><span>-17.125
</span>
3) Take the coefficient of "N"; divide it by 2; square it; add it to both sides of the equation.
-1.2 / 2 = -.6
-.6^2 = .36
</span>
n^2 -1.2n +.36 = <span>-17.125
+.36
Take the square root of both sides:</span>
(n-.6)*(n-.6) = sq root(

That's about as far as I can go.
Answer:
C) 30 by 10
Step-by-step explanation:
If the rail is ten meters long, and the rope is 10 meters long, they can travel 10 meters left of the rail, ten meters along the rail, ten meters right of the rail, and ten meters above the rail.
Answer:
The height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the height of the lighthouse be represented by s, then;
Tan 48° = (opposite) ÷ (adjacent)
Tan 48° = s ÷ 150
⇒ s = 150 × Tan 48°
= 150 × 1.1106
= 166.59
s ≅ 166.6 feet
Therefore, the height of the lighthouse is approximately 166.6 feet.
