A Puzzle
What is the missing number?
− 2 = 4
OK, the answer is 6, right? Because 6 − 2 = 4. Easy stuff.
Well, in Algebra we don't use blank boxes, we use a letter (usually an x or y, but any letter is fine). So we write:
x − 2 = 4
It is really that simple. The letter (in this case an x) just means "we don't know this yet", and is often called the unknown or the variable.
And when we solve it we write:
x = 6
Answer:
Yes, there are exactly 2 ways to solve this triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
Well we know that to find out a trigonometric ratio we are given an angle and a side, and we have to solve for the other side. In this case only 2 of the legs are given, hypotenuse is neither given nor asked. So we have to use the ratio that doesn't have hypotenuse included. Tangent is the only such ration. Now we can use either Tan(51) or Tan(39) to solve for the "x".
These would be the functions to solve for x:
1.) Tan(51) = 
2.) Tan (39) = 
Hope this helps!
Answer:
16 percent
Step-by-step explanation:
75 is the old value and 87 is the new value. In this case we have a positive change (increase) of 16 percent because the new value is greater than the old value.
Answer:
T=4
Step-by-step explanation:
it is just half of what the other side is if one side is like 1 1/2 then you just break the other side in half and that will give you T.
Answer:
-21 r^5
Step-by-step explanation:
(7r) (-3r^4)
Multiply the coefficients
7*(-3)
-21
Multiply the variables
r * r^4 = r^(4+1) = r^5
-21 r^5
