2=8x-2/9
add 2/9 to both sides
2 and 2/9=8x
2=18/9
2 and 2/9=18/9+2/9=20/9
20/9=8x
multiply both sides by 9
20=72x
divide boht isdes by 72
20/72=x=5/18
Answer:
C. 76.81
Step-by-step explanation:
We must use one of the trigonometric ratios to find the length, L, of the ramp. If we use 16 as the reference angle, the 22 in would be our opposite side and the ramp length is the adjacent.
Therefore, we must use tan, which is
:


-x² + 8x - 6 = 0
x = <u>-(8) +/- √((8)² - 4(-1)(-6))</u>
2(-1)
x = <u>-8 +/- √(64 - 20)</u>
-2
x = <u>-8 +/- √(44)
</u> -2<u>
</u>x = <u>-8 +/- 2√(11)
</u> -2
x = <u>-8 + 2√(11)</u> x = <u>-8 - 2√(11)
</u> -2 -2<u>
</u>x = 4 - √(11) x = -8 + √(11)
