Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be a number

Rewrite the sentence into something that can be interpreted better:

A number subtracted from -5 is -2

Now you can translate the statement into an equation:

-5 - n = -2

Solve for n

-n = 3

n = -3

Can someone help me find x please
a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

38.7°

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve the triangle using the trigonometrical ratios which may be expressed in the form SOA CAH TOA Where

SOA stands for

Sin Ф = opposite side/hypotenuses side

CAH stands for

Cosine Ф = adjacent side/hypotenuses side

TOA stands for

Tangent Ф = opposite side/adjacent side

The hypotenuse is the side facing the right angle while the opposite is the side facing the given angle.

Considering the triangle with respect to angle x, 8cm is the opposite side, 10cm is the adjacent side

hence

Tan x = 8/10

Tan x = 0.8

x = tan -1 0.8

= 38.7°
