After solving the given equation, you will find out that x= -7

Step-by-step explanation:

From my understanding, the unknown value of x has to be calculated in this equation

<em>1. Bracket open</em>

-2(-4x - 2) - 5x + 5 = -12

8x + 4 -5x + 5 = -12

<em>2. Take all variables at the left side and all numbers at the right side</em>

8x - 5x = -12-4-5

<em>3. Make x the subject</em>

3x = -21

x = \frac{-21}{3}

<em>4. Solve to find x</em>

x = -7

Therefore, the value of x is -7

Two walls of a canyon form the walls of a steady flowing river. From a point on the shorter wall, the angle of elevation to the
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

x is approximately 226.3 feet

y is approximately 308.6 feet

z is approximately 226.3 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of the walls are;

The angle of elevation from the top of the shorter wall to the top of the opposing wall, θ₁ = 20°

From the diagram, the angle of depression from the top of the shorter wall to the bottom of the opposing wall, θ₂ = 45°

The distance from the bottom of the shorter wall to the base of the opposing wall, l = 320 feet

x = The height of the shorter wall = l × sin(θ₂)

∴ x = 320 feet × sin(45°) = 320 feet × (√2)/2 = 160·√2 feet ≈ 226.3 feet

∴ x ≈ 226.3 feet

By observation, we have;

y = x + z × tan(θ₁)

Where;

z = l × cos(θ₂)

∴ y = 160·√2 + 320 × cos(45°) × tan(20°) ≈ 308.6

y ≈ 308.6 feet

z =  l × cos(θ₂)

∴  z = 320 × cos(45°) = 160·√2 ≈ 226.3

z ≈ 226.3 feet.

What’s the question mark
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

? = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

If the triangles are similar, then the only way I see this working is the sides measuring 63 and 54 are corresponding. The sides measuring 56 and 48 are corresponding. That leaves the sides measuring 35 and ? corresponding.

Set up a proportion.

63/54 = 35/?

63? = 54 * 35

63? = 1890

? = 30
