Answer:

20.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's label the vertices ABC as in the diagram below. Then

Data:

α = 34 °

β = 90 °

c = 17

Calculation:

cosα = AB/AC

Multiply each side by AC

ACcosα = AB

Divide each side by cosα

AC = AB/cosα = 17/cos34 ≈ 17/0.8290 ≈ 20.5

yarga [219]

Answer:

d=9

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient of straight line is given by

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Plug in our knows

4=\frac{17-9}{d-5} \text{ Solve for d} \\\\4(d-5)=8\\\\d-5=4\\d=9

Haley solving this problem by combining like terms 3x +5x=10
GaryK [48]

Answer:

x = 5/4

Step-by-step explanation:

By combining like terms, you get 8x = 10.

Divide the 8 on both sides of the equation.

x = 10/8

This, however, can be simplified by dividing by 2. This ultimately gives us 5/4.

(9h+3)(−h−1) porfavor ayudenme con esta pregunta.
BartSMP [9]

Answer:

-9h² - 12h - 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the FOIL method:

FOIL = First, Outside, Inside, Last

Multiply the terms together:

First: 9h * -h = -9h²

Outside: 9h * -1 = -9h

Inside: 3 * -h = -3h

Last: 3 * -1 = -3

Combine like terms: 9h² + (-9h - 3h) - 3

9h² - 12h - 3

-9h² - 12h - 3 is your answer.
