Answer:

x =9

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = be the number

2x -3 =15

Add 3 to each side

2x-3 +3 =15 +3

2x = 18

Divide each side by 2

2x/2 =18/2

x =9

Answer: x=-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Three (3) less than (-) twice (2) a number (x) is (=) 15

3-2x=15

-2x=15-3\\-2x=12\\x=\frac{12}{-2}\\ x=-6

Triangle ABC is a right triangle and cos(22.6o)=B/13. Solve for b and round to the nearest whole number.
vitfil [10]

The cosine of an angle is equal to the adjacent side divided by the hypotenuse. In a right triangle, the hypotenuse is the longest side. Its value is 13. It also follows that B is the adjacent side.

To solve for B,

B = 13 cos 22.6˚ = 12

The tangent of the angle is equal to the opposite side divided by the adjacent side. Since B is known, therefore the answer is

tan(22.6˚<span>) = a/12<span> </span></span>
