What is the value of r in the equation 4r − 8 = 5r + 12?

2 answers:

6 0

To find r, we have to isolate it on one side of the equation. We can do this by "undoing" the equation one step at a time.

4r - 8 = 5r + 12

4r - 8 - 4r = 5r + 12 - 4r

-8 = r + 12

-8 - 12 = r + 12 - 12

-20 = r

r = -20

Hope this helps!

Answer:

r= -20

Step-by-step explanation:

you need to solve this equation for the variable r, which means you need to get r alone on one side of the equation.

4r-8=5r+12

subtract 4r from both sides

-8=5r-4r+12

-8=1r+12

subtract 12 from both sides

-8-12=r

simplify

-20=r

What does AC=? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth. Please help

faltersainse [42]

Answer: About 3.06

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use trigonometry functions to solve for AC. Let the ?, representing AC, be "x" in our mathematical work.

Since we have the hypotenuse and x is adjacent to the angle given, I am going to use cosine.

cos(θ) = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse }$

cos(40) = $\frac{x}{4}$

0.766 ≈ $\frac{x}{4}$

3.06 ≈ x

x ≈ 3.06
