They are algebraic symbols or known as unknown number. There is no true value for them. The value of algebraic symbols are based on equations
ie. 1+x = 2
First, we isolate the x by canceling the +1 FROM BOTH SIDES(Balance method) by -1 ON BOTH SIDES.
1+x-1 = 2-1
So we are left with the x on the left side, and a single number on the right side. Therefore, our calculation is complete.
x = 1
More complex cases would be
2y-3 = 45
First, we need to isolate the algebraic symbol, which is 2y (yx2) by +3 ON BOTH SIDES
2y-3+3 = 45+3
2y = 48
WE ARE NOT DONE! 2y=48 is still an equation. Therefore, to isolate the y, we need to divide BOTH SIDES by 2
2y/2 = 48/2
y = 24
There is no true or absolute or definite value for algebraic symbols like x,y,z,a,c,t,h,d etc. They are used to represent unknown numbers.
Hope this helped!
Explanation:
Sum of all angles= 180 degrees
So,
3x + 75= 180
3x= 180 - 75
3x= 105
x= 105/3
x= 35
Answer= 35 degrees
Answer:
44.8
Step-by-step explanation:
cos α = adjacent leg/hypotenuse
cos 48° = 30/x
x = 30/(cos 48°) = 44.8
Answer:
-x^2+4x+6
Step-by-step explanation:
f(x) = 4x+1
g(x) = x^2 - 5
(f-g) (x) = 4x+1 - ( x^2 - 5)
Distribute the minus sign
= 4x+1 - x^2 +5
Combine like terms
= -x^2+4x+6
