For the given triangle, the value of x equals 30.9892 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:

In the triangle, the angle is 40°, the opposite side has a length of 26 units, the adjacent side has a length of x units while the hypotenuse is not given.

To determine the value of x, we determine the value of the tan of the given triangle.

To calculate the tan of angle A we divide the opposite side's length by the the adjacent side's length.

tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}.

Step 2:

The length of the opposite side = 26 units.

The length of the adjacent side = x units.

tan A = \frac{oppositeside}{adjacent side}, tan 40 = 0.8390, tan A = \frac{26}{x} .

0.8390 = \frac{26}{x} , x = \frac{26}{0.8390} = 30.9892.

So x measures 30.9892 units.

This is an equation of degrees 6 so it will have a total of 6 roots.If you draw the 
 graph  on calculator  it touches the x axis at x = -2 and x = 2

If we plug in x =2 and x = -2  they fit the equation .

Also as the graph just touches the x axis this shows that  x = 2 and x = -2 are duplicated 
That gives us the 4 roots and also the  +/- 2i    giving a total of 6 roots.

The second option is correct

If f(x) = x^2, which of the following describes the graph of f(x) - 5?
12345 [234]
In any given equation, a positive or negative number that isn't multiplied by a variable is called "b", or "y-intercept." Seeing as y-5 (f(x) is the same as y) isn't an equation, it probably means you need to add 5 to both sides to isolate y.
you end up with y=5, a horizontal line in which every "y" value in every set of points is equal to 5
Ex: (1,5),(2,5),(3,5)...
this means that your parent function of y=0 has a vertical shift upwards of five. hope I could help :)
