We must solve

8 -  \frac{7}{10}x = 6 -  \frac{1}{5}x \\ or \\ 80 - 7x = 60 - 2x \\ now \\ 20 = 5x \: so \: x = 4 \\
Means the candles will be the same size in 4 hours

22.5/(x-6) + 22.5/(x+6) = 9
multiply by x-6
=> (x-6)22.5/(x-6) + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
=> 22.5 + (x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)
multiply by x+6
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x+6)(x-6)22.5/(x+6) = 9(x-6)(x+6)
=> (x+6)22.5 + (x-6)22.5 = 9(x-6)(x+6)
distribute
=> 22.5x+6(22.5) + 22.5x - 6(22.5) = 9(x^2 - 36)
=> 45x = 9x^2 - 9(36)
=> 0 = 9x^2 - 45x - 9(36)
divide by 9
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = x^2 - 5x - 36
=> 0 = (x - 9)(x + 4)
x=9 and -4

Find the value of x in the triangle shown below.
almond37 [142]

Answer:

x=69.41860973

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the law of sines

sin x             sin 55

------------- = -----------

4                       3.5

Using cross products

3.5 sin x = 4 sin 55

Divide each side by 3.5

sin x = 4/3.5 sin 55

Take the inverse sin of each side

x = sin ^-1 ( 4/3.5 sin 55)

x=69.41860973
