18r3. Sorry if I got it wrong but hopefully it is right.
2 + d = 2 - 3(d- 5) - 2
First, cancel 2 on both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Second, expand. / Your problem should look like:
Third, simplify -3d + 15 - 2 to get -3d + 13. / Your problem should look like:
Fourth, add 3d to both sides. / Your problem should look like:
Fifth, add d + 3d to get 4d. / Your problem should look like:
Sixth, divide both sides by 4. / Your problem should look like:

Answer as fraction:

Answer as decimal:
Answer:
2.1
Step-by-step explanation:
This involves trigonometry. Since we need to find the value of a, we need to find a trig equation with a as the numerator. Luckily, we have one, tan. So, tan(20) is equal to a/6, right. So, using a calculator, tan(20) is approximately equal to 0.363. This times 6 should equal a. This is approximately around 2.1. Thus our answer is 2.1
The first one. It is called an exponential decay curve.
