Nine times the sum of a number and 4 is 2
Anna11 [10]

Answer(s):

If you are asking for the equation, it's 9(x+4)=2

However, if you're asking for the value of x as well, it's -34/9

Step by Step:

1) First we must find the equation. In your question, the unknown number is x. Therefore we can know that "the sum of a number and 4" is (x+4). Since we are multiplying this sum by 9, we can put the 9 in front of this expression to multiply it--getting 9(x+4). And since we know it "is 2" we can say that 9(x+4)=2.

2) Now, we have to solve the equation, 9(x+4) = 2

3) We can start by distributing, 9x+36 = 2

4) Now let's move 36 to the right by subtracting from both sides, 9x = -34

5) To isolate x, let's divide both sides by 9, x = -34/9

6) Our fraction answer can't be simplified, so we get x = -34/9

Tim wants to determine the height, x, of a nearby tree. He stands 35 feet
kodGreya [7K]

Answer:

x ≈ 29.4 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The model is a right triangle.

Using the tangent ratio

tan40° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{x}{35} ( multiply both sides by 35 )

35 × tan40° = x , then

x ≈ 29.4 ft ( to 1 dec. place )
