5 = 3x + 11

Reorder the terms:

5 = 11 + 3x

Solving

5 = 11 + 3x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '-3x' to each side of the equation.

5 + -3x = 11 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 3x + -3x = 0

5 + -3x = 11 + 0

5 + -3x = 11

Add '-5' to each side of the equation.

5 + -5 + -3x = 11 + -5

Combine like terms: 5 + -5 = 0

0 + -3x = 11 + -5

-3x = 11 + -5

Combine like terms: 11 + -5 = 6

-3x = 6

Divide each side by '-3'.

x = -2

Simplifying

x = -2

3.5 lego planes / 60 minutes

So fraction =

3.5/60

In 40 minutes he will build x planes

So the fraction equation is:

3.5/60 = x/40

Solve:

Cross multiply =

140 = 60x

x = 2 1/3

2 1/3 planes

If my answer is incorrect, pls correct me!

The sail of a boat is in the shape of a right triangle, as shown below:

Answer: Choice C
7 divided by cosec 50 degrees

=====================================

Explanation:

Abbreviations:
sec = secant
cot = cotangent
cosec = cosecant (csc is also a widely used abbreviation)

-----------------

Let the horizontal leg be x

This leg is opposite the angle 50 degrees. The hypotenuse is 7

Opposite = x
Hypotenuse = 7

We'll either use the sine rule or the cosecant (csc) rule
sine = opposite/hypotenuse
cosecant = hypotenuse/opposite

Since "sine" is nowhere to be found in the answer choices, we'll use the cosecant rule

-----------

cosecant = hypotenuse/opposite
csc(angle) = hypotenuse/opposite
csc(50) = 7/x
x*csc(50) = 7
x = 7/csc(50)

This is why the answer is choice C
