you will need to use the law of cosines since this picture does not indicate that this is a right triangle

c^2 = a^2 + b^2 – 2ab cos C,

16^2 = 17^2+8^2 -2*17*8*cosC

256=289-272cosC

-33=-272cosC

33/272 = cosC

cos^-1 (33/272)=C taking the inverse cos

C=83.0 (to the nearest tenth)

b^2 = a^2 + c^2 – 2ac cos B,

8^2 = 17^2 +16^2 -2*17*16cosB

64=289-544cosB

-225=-544cosB

225/544=cosB

cos^(-1) =B

B=65.5

A=180-83-65.6

A=31.4

Evaluate the expression -8x + 5 - 2x - 4 + 5x when x = 2 before and after simplifying.

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

all we have to do is plug in 2 for x into the equation:

-8(2) + 5 -2(2) -4 + 5(2)

-16 + 5 -4 -4 + 10

-11 -8 + 10

-19 + 10

the answer is

-9

to simplify the equation we’ll combine like terms

-8x + 5 -2x -4 + 5x

-10x + 1 + 5x

-5x + 1

now we’ll plug in 2 for x

-5(2) + 1

-10 + 1

the answer is still

-9

If BY = 6, YC = 10, AX = 18, then XC = a: 10.8 b:5 c:30 d:48

vampirchik [111]

To answer this item, we assume that the topic is in similar polygons such that the ratio of the corresponding sides should be equal. In this item,

BY/YC = AX/XC

Substituting the known values,

6/10 = 18/XC

The value of XC from the equation is 30. The answer is letter C.

Answer:

First you have to multiply negative four in parentheses, then add minus two

-4×(-8+3x)=32-12x

2+32-12x=34-12x

34-12x=82

-12x=48

x=-4
