Solve for x:5 x + 3 (x + 4) = -20
3 (x + 4) = 3 x + 12:3 x + 12 + 5 x = -20
Grouping like terms, 5 x + 3 x + 12 = (5 x + 3 x) + 12:(5 x + 3 x) + 12 = -20
5 x + 3 x = 8 x:8 x + 12 = -20
Subtract 12 from both sides:8 x + (12 - 12) = -12 - 20
12 - 12 = 0:8 x = -20 - 12
-20 - 12 = -32:8 x = -32
Divide both sides of 8 x = -32 by 8:(8 x)/8 = (-32)/8
8/8 = 1:x = (-32)/8
The gcd of -32 and 8 is 8, so (-32)/8 = (8 (-4))/(8×1) = 8/8×-4 = -4:Answer: x = -4

What value of x satisfies
LenaWriter [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

The given trigonometric equation is cos(90-x)=-\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3}.

We take the inverse cosine of both sides to get:

90-x=cos^{-1}(-\frac{\sqrt{3} }{3})

90-x=125

x=125-90

x=-35\degree=325\degree to the nearest degree

None of the options satisfies the given equation.

But if the question is actually;

cos(90-x)=-\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}

Then;

90-x=\cos^{-1}(-\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}).

90-x=210.

90-x=210.

x=-120\degree.

Or

x=360-120=240\degree.

In this case the answer will be B
