Step-by-step explanation:

8-3x=17

-8 on both side to cancel it out

-3x=9

divide -3 on both sides

which would equal to -3

Answer:

<em>x = 3</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

8 - 3x = 17

<em>You have to switch the 8 to the other side. To do this, you would have to move it after the 17 and add a minus to it, making it a -8 (this is because when a number is switched to the other side of the '=' sign, the number gets 'mirrored' aka positive numbers become negative and negative numbers become positive).</em>

3x = 17 - 8

3x = 9

<em />

<em>Now you have to do the same thing you did with 8 but instead you have to do it with 3. Since 3 has an invisble 'times sign' by it, the number after the equals will be divided by 3 in this case so...</em>

x = 9 ÷ 3

x = 3

pickupchik [31]

Kinetic engery = -1/2mv^2

Work = Fd

Combine:

-1/2mv^2 - Fd = 0

-1/2mv^2 = (0.30*15000*9.81*cos(6))d = 0

Multiply both sides by 2:

v^2 = 2d(0.30*9.81*cos(6))

Solve for d:

d=v^2 / 2(0.30*9.81*cos96))

v = speed:

d = 35^2 / 2*0.30 * 9.81 * cos(6)

d = 1225 / 5.85376

d = 209.27 meters. Round answer as needed.
