Fourteen less than three fourths of a number is negative eight. Find the number

The word "is" in this kind of problem typically means "=", so we know that something =-8. Since we're finding the number, we should start with the closest thing in the phrase given to that number. In this case, it's 3/4x. Finally, since we have the "14 less than", we need to add that in. Your answer is:

3/4x-14=-8. Now we can just solve!
       +14   +14

3/4x=6.
*4/3   *4/3

x=8.

URGENT...Please help me with this question!!!!!!

Answer:

option 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem can be solved using Pythagoras' identity for a right triangle.

The angle between due East and due North is 90°

The solution here involves using the Cosine rule.

let x be the direct distance between house and office, then

x² = 17² + 21² - 2(17)(21)cos90° → option 2

Note that since cos90° = 0 the equation reduces to

x² = 17² + 21² ← Pythagoras' identity

Which of the following polynomials is in standard form (Picture)
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

A polynomial in standard form has the terms in ascending order.

In other words, the term with the largest degree is on the left, followed by the term with the second largest degree, etc.

The largest term in this polynomial is 2x³. Thus, we need to start with that.

The only choice that starts with 2x³ is choice D.

Thus, choice D is in standard form.

And examining choice D, we see that it is in ascending order all the way through.
