Answer:

x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

You are solving for x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operation, and equals:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplication

Division

Addition

Subtraction

First, subtract 14 and 4x from both sides:

-3x (-4x) + 14 (-14) = 4x (-4x) - 7 (-14)

-3x - 4x = -7 - 14

-7x = -21

Next, divide -7 from both sides of the equation:

(-7x)/-7 = (-21)/-7

x = -21/-7

x = 3

x = 3 is your answer.

(50 POINTS) What is the length of YZ in Triangle XYZ? Explain two different methods that could be used to find this length.

LenKa [72]

<h3>First Method:</h3>

<u>Using cosine rule</u>:

$\rightarrow \sf cos(30 ) = \dfrac{YZ}{12}$

$\rightarrow \sf YZ = 12cos(30 )$

$\rightarrow \sf YZ = 6\sqrt{3}$

$\rightarrow \sf YZ = 10.4$

<h3>Second Method:</h3>

<u>First find XY using sine rule</u>:

$\rightarrow \sf sin(30)=\dfrac{XY}{12}$

$\rightarrow \sf XY = 12sin(30)$

$\rightarrow \sf XY =6$

Then use Pythagoras Theorem:

⇒ XY² + YZ² = XZ²

⇒ (6)² + YZ² = 12²

⇒ YZ² = 144 - 36

⇒ YZ = √108

⇒ YZ = 6√3

⇒ YZ = 10.4
