The answer I got is 17x-70/5
(6 + 3) + 21 = 6 + (3 + 21)
It's an ASSOCIATIVE PROPERTY
(a + b) + c = a + (b + c)
So to add fractions they need to have a common denominator, which in this case is 24. then multiply 1 by 4 and 5 by 3 because whatever you multiply the denominator by you need to do the same to the numerator, which will get you 4/24+15/24 then you add across the numerators and you get 19/24
Answer: Approximately d = 208.72
============================================================
Work Shown:
Make sure your calculator is in radian mode
A quick way to check is to compute cos(pi) and you should get -1
cos(angle) = adjacent/hypotenuse
cos(x) = 200/d
cos(0.29) = 200/d
d*cos(0.29) = 200
d = 200/cos(0.29)
d = 208.715135166392 which is approximate
d = 208.72
I rounded to two decimal places since x is rounded in that manner as well. Round however else you need if your teacher instructs.
