Answer: The value of x is 45

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation x/3-6=9 is a linear equation, where x/3 is the same as one-third of x.

Thus it is easily simplified as such:

x/3-6=9

Collect like terms

x/3 = 9 + 6

x/3 = 15

i.e (1/3) of X = 15

To get the value of x, cross multiply

x = 3 x 15

x = 45

Thus, the value of x is 45

Enter a range of value for x.

zubka84 [21]

Answer:

-2 < x < 35

Step-by-step explanation:

We have that the larger side has a larger opposite angle and the smaller sides and a smaller opposite angle.

The opposite angle of the 14 unit side is 37 °.

The opposite angle of the 13-unit side is (x + 2) °.

Since 13 <14, it would be:

x + 2 <37

we subtract 2 on both sides

x <35

The value of x must be less than 35.

Now, to form a triangle, the angle must be greater than 0.

x + 2> 0

we subtract 2 on both sides

x> -2

The value of x must be greater than - 2.

Therefore the answer would be:

-2 <x <35

The log of x cubed times y squared simplified

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

$log(x^{3}y^{2}) = 3 log x+2 log y$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:-

using logarithmic formula $log(ab)=log a+log b$

so given $log(x^{3} y^{2} ) = log (x^{3} )+log(y^{2} )$

now simplify

= $3 log x+2 log y$

<u>Answer:</u>-

$log(x^{3}y^{2})= [tex]3 log x+2 log y$

Which equation describes a line parallel<br> to y= 4x+ 5 through point (-2, 1)?

Tema [17]

Hi there!

For a line to be PARALLEL, it must contain the same slope.

The given line has a slope of 4, so we can use the point-slope formula to solve:

$\large\boxed{y - y_1 = m(x - x_1)}$

y1 = y-coordinate of given point

x1 = x-coordinate of given point

m = slope

Plug in the values:

$y - 1 = 4(x - (-2))\\\\y - 1 = 4(x + 2)$

Simplify:

$y - 1 = 4x + 8\\\\\boxed{y = 4x + 9}$
