Answer:
a=1 or a=5/6
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm going to attempt to factor 6a^2-a-5
a=6
b=-1
c=-5
Find two numbers that multiply to be a*c and add to be b.
a*c=-30 =-6(5)
b=-1 =-6+5
So replace -a with -6a+5a in the expression we started with
6a^2-6a+5a-5
now we factor by grouping
6a(a-1)+5(a-1)
(a-1)(6a-5)
Now let's solve the equation:
(a-1)(6a-5)=0
So a=1 or a=5/6
Tan(35)=x/12
x=12*tan(35)=8.40
Answer:
x = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
it's an isosceles triangle so base angles are the same
3x - 30 = 45
Add 30 on both sides
3x = 75
divide both sides by 3
x = 25
Answer:5.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You take the ratio divide then multiply by 2
