The first step of solving this problem is to find your x, which is the unknown number. The unknown number is the age of Max. Once you find the x you can write out your equation.
The equation for this problem is:
2x+8=26
the first step is to subtract 8 from both sides so that all you have on the left side is 2x and your equation will look like ths:
2x=18
after subtracting the 8; divide everything by the coefficient of x which is 2, your result is:
x=9
Max is 9 years old.
3x-15+2x-2
=5x-17
use the distribution property
9514 1404 393
Answer:
56 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
The geometry can be modeled by a right triangle with an unknown hypotenuse, and a side opposite the 30° angle that is 28 ft.
sin(30°) = (28 ft)/hypotenuse
hypotenuse = (28 ft)/sin(30°) = 56 ft
The length of the escalator is 56 feet.
