Answer:

36 °

Step-by-step explanation:

In this case a rectangular triangle is formed so we can use the trigonometric functions to calculate the angle, they give us the value of the two legs, therefore we can apply the tangent function.

Tan A ° = opposite / adjacent

replacing:

Tan A ° = 50/68

Tan A ° = 0.735

A ° = arc tan (0.735)

A ° = 36.32

Which means that the angle of inclination is 36°

ycow [4]

Answer:

24m3−168m2+225m+30

Step-by-step explanation:

(3m+−6)(8m2+−40m+−5)

=(3m)(8m2)+(3m)(−40m)+(3m)(−5)+(−6)(8m2)+(−6)(−40m)+(−6)(−5)

=24m3−120m2−15m−48m2+240m+30

19x+5+16x=180<br> I need help with this I don’t understand
EleoNora [17]

Hello!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

19x+5+16x=180

First, add the x's together:

35x+5=180

Now, subtract 5 from both sides:

35x=180-5

35x=175

Divide both sides by 35 to isolate x:

x=5

Hope you find my answer helpful! Please give the crown if you do! (:
