2x-3>11-5x

Simplify both sides of the equation

2x-3>-5x+11

Add 5x to both sides

2x-3+5x>-5x+11+5x

7x-3>11

Add 3 to both sides

7x-3+3>11+3

7x>14

Divide both sides by 7

7x/7>14/7

x>2

I hope that's help !

Highschool level trigonometry!!! Need help knowing step by step how to find answer!

Goshia [24]

Answer:

$\theta \approx 82.34^\circ$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please refer to the attached diagram. (Apologies if the shading or resolution is a bit off.)

So, we want to find θ.

Since we formed a right triangle, we can use right triangle ratios.

We know the measure of the adjacent side to θ and the hypotenuse.

Therefore, we will use the cosine ratio:

$\displaystyle \cos(\theta)=\frac{\text{adjacent}}{\text{hypotenuse}}$

The adjacent side is 2 and the hypotenuse is 15. By substitution:

$\displaystyle \cos(\theta)=\frac{2}{15}$

Now, we will take the inverse cosine of both sides. So:

$\displaystyle \theta=\cos^{-1}\Big(\frac{2}{15}\Big)$

Use a calculator. Hence:

$\theta \approx 82.34^\circ$

The angle between the ground and the ladder is about 82.34°.

30 years ago zoe was 2/3 as old as luke, 18 years ago zoe was 5/6 as old as luke how old are they now

barxatty [35]

Based on the mathematical statements, Zoe is 56 years old and Luke is 66 years old, now

<h3>How to determine how old they are now?</h3>

From the question, we have the following statements that can be used in our computation:

<u>30 years ago</u>

Zoe was 2/3 as old as Luke

<u>18 years ago</u>

Zoe was 5/6 as old as Luke

Let their present ages be represented as

Zoe = x

Luke = y

So, we have the following representations

<u>30 years ago</u>

Zoe was 2/3 as old as Luke

x - 36 = 2/3(y - 36)

<u>18 years ago</u>

Zoe was 5/6 as old as Luke

x - 18 = 5/6(y - 18)

So, we have the following system of equations

x - 36 = 2/3(y - 36)

x - 18 = 5/6(y - 18)

Make x the subject in x - 18 = 5/6(y - 18)

x = 5/6(y - 18) + 16

Substitute x = 5/6(y - 18) + 16 in x - 36 = 2/3(y - 36)

5/6(y - 18) + 16 - 36 = 2/3(y - 36)

Open the brackets

5/6y - 15 + 16 - 36 = 2/3y - 24

Evaluate the like terms

5/6y - 35 = 2/3y - 24

Multiply through by 6

5y - 210 = 4y - 144

Evaluate the like terms

y = 66

Substitute y = 66 in x = 5/6(y - 18) + 16

x = 5/6(66 - 18) + 16

Evaluate

x = 56

Recall that

Zoe = x

Luke = y

So, we have

Zoe = x = 56

Luke = y = 66

Hence, they are 56 and 66 years, now
