You have an equation with the variable x.
You want to know what value of x makes the equation true.
The first step is to simplify the left side by distributing on both sets of parentheses.

- (1 + 7x) - 6 (-7 - x) = 36

Distribute the negative sign. It changes every sign inside the parentheses.
Distribute the -6. Multiply each number inside the parentheses by -6.

-1 - 7x + 42 + 6x = 36

Now combine like terms on the left side.

-x + 41 = 36

Subtract 41 from both sides.

-x = -5

Divide both sides by -1.

x = 5

Our solution is x = 5.
We can now check to see if it is correct.

We replace x with 5 in the original equation and see it the statement is true.

- (1 + 7x) - 6 (-7 - x) = 36

- (1 + 7*5) - 6 (-7 - 5) = 36

- (1 + 35) - 6(-12) = 36

-36 - (-72) = 36

-36 + 72 = 36

36 = 36

Since 36 = 36 is a true statement, our solution, x = 5, is correct.

John who is 5 ft tall is standing 20 feet away from a tree, and you measure the angle of elevation to be 38∘. How tall is the tr
fenix001 [56]

Answer:

The tree is 20.6 ft tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Please check the attached graph.

From the diagram, it is clear that John is 5 ft tall is standing 20 feet away from a tree, making an angle of elevation to be 38⁰.

The diagram makes a right-angled triangle.

  • Given the angle = Ф = 38⁰
  • Adjacent = a = 5 ft
  • Opposite = b = 20 ft
  • Hypotenuse = Tree length = c  ?

Pythagorean Theorem:

For a right-angled triangle, with sides 'a' and 'b', the hypotenuse 'c' is defined as:

\:c=\sqrt{a^2+b^2}

substituting a=5, b=20

c=\sqrt{5^2+20^2}

c=5\sqrt{17}

c=20.6 ft

Thus, the tree is 20.6 ft tall.

What is the maximum value of P = 4x + 2y, given the constraints on x and y listed below?
Aliun [14]
What are the constraints?


When you graph the constraints the four points you can use are (0,0), (10,0), (0,2), and (6,2). 

(10,0) is the point that gives you the maximum value which is 40.

Find the measure of the remote exterior angle. m∠x=(198−5n)°m∠y=(5n+37)°m∠z=(n+7)°
MrMuchimi

The value of the angle ∠x will be ∠x = 128°. Then the correct option is C.

<h3>What is the triangle?</h3>

A triangle is a three-sided polygon with three angles. The angles of the triangle add up to 180 degrees.

The triangle is given below.

The sum of the two interior angle is equal to the third exterior angle.

m∠x = (198 − 5n)°

m∠y = (5n + 37)°

m∠z = (n + 7)°

We know that

∠x = ∠y + ∠z

198 - 5n = 5n + 37 + n + 7

       11n = 154

          n = 14

Then the value of the angle ∠x will be

∠x = 198 – 5 × 14

∠x = 128°

Then the correct option is C.

The complete question is given below.

More about the triangle link is given below.

Infinite over E n=1 4(0.5)^n-1
yan [13]

Answer:

S = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

An infinite geometric series is defined as limit of partial sum of geometric sequences. Therefore, to find the infinite sum, we have to find the partial sum first then input limit approaches infinity.

However, fortunately, the infinite geometric series has already set up for you. It’s got the formula for itself which is:

\displaystyle \large{\lim_{n\to \infty} S_n = \dfrac{a_1}{1-r}}

We can also write in summation notation rather S-term as:

\displaystyle \large{\sum_{n=1}^\infty a_1r^{n-1} = \dfrac{a_1}{1-r}}

Keep in mind that these only work for when |r| < 1 or else it will diverge.

Also, how fortunately, the given summation fits the formula pattern so we do not have to do anything but simply apply the formula in.

\displaystyle \large{\sum_{n=1}^\infty 4(0.5)^{n-1} = \dfrac{4}{1-0.5}}\\\\\displaystyle \large{\sum_{n=1}^\infty 4(0.5)^{n-1} = \dfrac{4}{0.5}}\\\\\displaystyle \large{\sum_{n=1}^\infty 4(0.5)^{n-1} = 8}

Therefore, the sum will converge to 8.
