Here's my step-by-step explanation:

Whenever you see the phrase "a number" in a problem like this, then they want you to use a variable. Let's use <em>n</em> for number and translate from English to Algebraic.

- The product of 2 more than a number and 10 is 36 more than 8 times the number.

- The product of 2 more than <em>n</em> and 10 is 36 more than 8 times <em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>The product of 2 + <em>n</em> and 10 is 36 + 8<em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) is 36 + 8<em>n.</em>

<em>- </em>(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

Let's solve.

(2 + <em>n</em>)(10) = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

20 + 10<em>n</em> = 36 + 8<em>n</em>

10<em>n</em> - 8<em>n</em> = 36 - 20

2<em>n</em> = 16

<em>n</em> = 8

Hope this helps, let me know if I made a mistake or if you have any questions!

From the calculation done below, it can be seen that the cost of one orange is 85 cents.

<h3>How do we determine the cost of a product?</h3>

The cost of one orange can be determined as follows:

One dime = 10 cents

2 dollars = 200 cents

Total amount given by Sue to the store clerk = One dime + 2 dollars = 10 cents + 200 cents = 210 cents

Cost of two oranges = Total amount given by Sue to the store clerk –

Change = 210 cents – 40 cents = 170 cents

Cost of one orange = Cost of two oranges / 2 = 170 cents / 2 = 85 cents

Please help me . Find x.
Paladinen [302]

Answer:

12) 5.96 ; 13)

Step-by-step explanation:

12). x and 5 are legs, so

opposite leg/adjacent leg = tangent 40°

5/x= tan40°,    5= x*tan40°, x= 5/tan40° ≈ 5.96

13). 15 is opposite leg

24 is hypotenuse

opposite leg/hypotenuse = sin(x)

sin(x) = 15/24

x = arcsin(15/24) ≈ 38.68°
