12 - 2x = -2(y - x)

12 - 2x = -2y - (-2x)

12 - 2x = -2y + 2x

12 - 2x - 2x = -2y + 2x - 2x

12 - 4x = -2y

12 - 12 - 4x = -2y - 12

-4x = -2y - 12

-4x/4 = -2y/4 - 12/4

-x = -0.5y - 3

-x/-1 = -0.5y/-1 - 3/-1

x = 0.5y + 3

or

x = 3 + 0.5y

A source of laser light sends rays AB and AC toward two opposite walls of a hall. The light rays strike the walls at points B an
Nataly [62]

Answer:

The distance between the walls is 70 m.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: A source of laser light is at point A on the ground between two parallel walls BE and CD . The walls are perpendicular to the ground that is

BE ⊥ ED and CD ⊥ ED

AB is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the left at point B which is 30 meters above the ground. that is BE = 30 m

AC is a ray of light which strikes the wall on the right at point C. The length of AC = 80 meters.

The ray AB makes an angle of 45 degrees with the ground that is m∠BAE = 45°

The ray AC makes an angle of 60 degrees with the ground that is m∠CAD = 60°

As shown is figure attached below.

WE have to find the distance between the walls that is Length of ED

Length of ED = EA + AD

Consider the Δ AEB,

Using trigonometric ratio,

\tan\theta=\frac{perpendicular}{base}

Here \theta=45^{\circ} , perpendicular = 30 m  and base we can find.

thus,

\tan 45^{\circ}=\frac{30}{EA}

We know \tan 45^{\circ}=1

thus, EA =  30 m

Consider the Δ AEB,

Using trigonometric ratio,

\cos\theta=\frac{base}{hypotenuse}

Here \theta=60^{\circ} , hypotenuse = 80 m  and base we can find.

thus, \cos 60^{\circ}=\frac{base}{80}

We know, \cos 60^{\circ}=\frac{1}{2}

thus, Base = 40 m

AD = 40 m

Thus, the distance between the walls that is the length of ED = 30 + 40 = 70 m

The ratio of susan's money to isabella's money is 2:11. if susan $12, how much money does isbella have?
valentina_108 [34]
If Susan had 2$ and got to 12$ we need to find what multiplied by 2 = 12. So, 12/2=6
If 6x2=12 then 11x6=66
66$
