What the heck do i do with this
Ad libitum [116K]
Use the law of cosines to find a: a^2=b^2+c^2-2bc (cos(A))

So to use the given numbers you get: a^2=27^2+45^2-2(27)(45)(cos(53))

Which would come out to equal about 35.94

so a=35.9

What value of X makes the equation true -7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1
Bond [772]

Answer:

x = 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

-7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1

-7x + 5 + x = -18x + 9 - 1

combine like terms:

-6x + 5 = -18x + 8

add 18x to each side of the equation:

12x + 5 = 8

subtract 5 from each side:

12x = 3

divide both sides by 12:

x = 3/12 = 1/4
