4/5 of 360 is 288, but that's how much she read after today so last week she read that much minus 46 which is 242
Simplifying
0x + 7 + 5x = 2x + 30 + 40
Anything times zero is zero.
0x + 7 + 5x = 2x + 30 + 40
Combine like terms: 0 + 7 = 7
7 + 5x = 2x + 30 + 40
Reorder the terms:
7 + 5x = 30 + 40 + 2x
Combine like terms: 30 + 40 = 70
7 + 5x = 70 + 2x
Solving
7 + 5x = 70 + 2x
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-2x' to each side of the equation.
7 + 5x + -2x = 70 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x
7 + 3x = 70 + 2x + -2x
Combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0
7 + 3x = 70 + 0
7 + 3x = 70
Add '-7' to each side of the equation.
7 + -7 + 3x = 70 + -7
Combine like terms: 7 + -7 = 0
0 + 3x = 70 + -7
3x = 70 + -7
Combine like terms: 70 + -7 = 63
3x = 63
Divide each side by '3'.
x = 21
Simplifying
x = 21
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Givens
You have the hypotenuse: 13
You seek the adjacent side: x
You have the angle enclosing the 2: 47 degrees.
The relationship is the Cosine
Solution
Cos(47) = opposite / hypotenuse
Cos(47) = 0.6820 From your calculator
Cos(47) = x / 13 Multiply both sides by 13
13*cos(47) = x
x=8.866
