Quotient is the result of dividing two numbers.

x= the unknown number

The equation is x divided by 9 equals x minus 40.


x/9= x - 40
multiply both sides by 9

(9)(x/9)= (9)(x - 40)
x= 9x - 360

subtract 9x from both sides
-8x= -360

divide both sides by -8
x= 45


ANSWER: The number is 45.

Hops this helps! :)

Find the mean of the data set 31,31,22,28,23?
Lina20 [59]
The mean is 27 
How you do this is you add all the numbers together even the ones that are duplicated like in this case 31. Now add em all up which equals 135. Now you take the number that they equal up to and divide by how many numbers are in the set of data in this case it is 5. After dividing you get 27.
I hope this helps!

Can you guys help me out on this? I'm still learning sign, cosign, and tangent :)

Answer:

1. 12/13 and 5/13

2. 5/13 and 12/13

3. The sin of <A and cos of <B are congruent.

Since "Sine" is Opposite/Hypotenuse and Cosine is adjacent hypotenuse...

The opposite of angle A is 12, and the hypotenuse is 12, therefore making 12/13.

The adjacent of angle B is 12, (The adjacent side is the side next to the opposite that is not the hypotenuse) and the hypotenuse is 13, therefore making 12/13.   (The hypotenuse never changes no matter how you look at the triangle.)

Sin <A = 12/13

Cos <B= 12/13
