First, distribute the numbers

3(x+1) = -2(x-1) +6
3x+3 = -2x+2+6
3x+3 = -2x+8
Subtract 3 from the left to get rid of it and move it to the right
(3x+3)-3 = (-2x+8)-3
3x= -2x+5
Add 2x from the right to get rid of it and move it to the left.
(3x)+2x = (-2x+5) +2x
5x = 5
Divide both sides by 5
5x/5 = 5/5
x = 1

Answer:

The angle is "27 and 63".

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A and B are two angles, in which A is " $\frac{1}{2}$ " complementary angles and B be is another complementary angle.

Condition of complementary angle :

$A+B =90 ......(i)$

Solution:

$\ A = \ 3B - 18 \\\\ \ put \ the \ value \ of \ A \ in \ equation.....(i) \\\\ \ Equation: \\ \\\Rightarrow \ A\ +\ B \ =\ 90 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 3B\ -\ 18 \ + \ B \ = \ 90 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 4B \ = \ 90 +18 \\\\\Rightarrow \ 4B = 108 \\\\ \Rightarrow B = \frac{108}{4} \\\\ \Rightarrow B \ = \ 27\\$

$\ put \ the \ value \ of \ B \ in \ equation (i).\\\\ \ Equation: \\\\\Rightarrow A+B=90\\\\\Rightarrow A+27=90\\\\\Rightarrow A=90-27\\\\\Rightarrow A= 63$

A 2-ft vertical post casts a 20-in shadow at the same time a nearby cell phone tower casts a 125-ft shadow. How tall is the c

chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

1249. 5 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Pole length , Pl = 2 fts

Pole shadow, Ps = 20 in = (0.0833 * 20) = 1.666 ft

Tower length, Tl = 125 ft

Tower shadow, Ts = x

Pl / Ps = Tl/ Ts

2/ 1.666 = 125 / x

Cross multiply

2x = 125 * 1.666

2x = 208.25

x = 104.125 ft

x = 104.125 * 12 = 1249. 5 inches

Answer:

Ram -- ₹1200
Kalpana -- ₹800

Step-by-step explanation:

Their age total is 15+10=25, so Ram will get 15/25 = 0.6 of the total. Kalpana will get the remaining 0.4 of the total.

Ram receives 0.6 × ₹2000 = ₹1200

Kalpana receives 0.4 × ₹2000 = ₹800
