Answer:

x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify then isolate x

4 (-x + 1 ) = -2 (x + 2) Distribute across brackets

-4x + 4 = -2x - 4 Add 2x to both sides

-2x + 4 = -4 Subtract 4 from both sides

-2x = -8 Divide both sides by -2

x = 4

damaskus [11]

Given:

There are given that the two paths and one path are 2 miles from the road.

Explanation:

Suppose the distance from the playground to the road is x.

To find the value x, we need to use the cos function;

So,

From the cos function in the given right angle triangle:

$cos50^{\circ}=\frac{x}{2}$

Then,

$\begin{gathered} cos50^{\operatorname{\circ}}=\frac{x}{2} \\ 0.64=\frac{x}{2} \end{gathered}$

Then,

$\begin{gathered} 0.64=\frac{x}{2} \\ x=0.64\times2 \\ x=1.28 \\ x=1.3mi \end{gathered}$

Final answer:

Hence, the correct option C.

Does anyone know what is the value of x

ANTONII [103]

Answer:

7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

By intersecting secants theorem:

$12(12 - x) = 6(6 + 3) \\ \\ 12(12 - x) = 54 \\ \\ 144 - 12x = 54 \\ \\ 144 - 54 = 12x \\ \\ 90 = 12x \\ \\ x = \frac{90}{12} \\ \\ x = 7.5$
