Answer:

4b - 3s = 40

4b = 40 + 3s

b = 40 - 3s/4

4b - 3s = 40

4b - 40 =3s

4b - 40 /3 = s

Using the following triangle, what is the cosine of angle B?
stealth61 [152]

Hello!

To find cosine, use the formula cos = adjacent / hypotenuse.

According to angle B, adjacent of angle B is side A, and the hypotenuse is side c because the hypotenuse is always opposite the right angle.

Therefore, the cosine of angle B is a/c.

Solve for x using the<br> distributive property.<br> -2(-3+ x) = -4<br> X =<br> [?]
dlinn [17]

Answer:

x=5

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(-3+ x) = -4

Distribute

-2 * -3 + (-2) *x = -4

6 -2x = -4

Subtract 6 from each side

6 -2x-6 = -4-6

-2x = -10

Divide each side by -2

-2x/-2 = -10/-2

x = 5
