|x|+5=18 5 or - 5 13 or - 13 18 or - 18 23 or - 23

1 answer:

6 0

Just transpose the 5 to the right side of 18 so it will look like this, /x/ = 18 - 5
Then get the difference and it would be 13. So to check this out if it is correct, substitute x for the value of 13 and it will look like this.
13 + 5 = 18
I hope my answer helped you.

Write the equation x2+24x+60=0 in the form (x+p)2=q

navik [9.2K]

Answer:

(x+12)^2=84

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2+24x+60=0

x^2+24x=-60

x^2+24x+(24/2)^2=-60+(24/2)^2

(x+24/2)^2=84

(x+12)^2=84 (ans)

Gianna is going to throw a ball from the top floor of her middle school. When she throws the ball from 48feet above the ground,

My name is Ann [436]

Answer: t = 3seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the zero means we will equate the function to zero and then solve, that is

$-16t^{2}$ + 32t + 48 = 0

by factorizing , we have

(t+1)(-16t+48) = 0

Therefore:

t = -1 or t = 3

since time can not be negative , then , t = 3 seconds

A 35-foot tall pole is leading towards a building. To stop the pole from leaning further, a 48-foot long cable is secured from t

Answer:

38.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangle solver can give an answer easily. The angle is 38.5°.

The law of cosines can be written to solve for an unknown angle C opposite side 'c' and flanked by sides 'a' and 'b'.

C = arccos((a² +b² -c²)/(2ab))

Here, we have a=35, b=48, c=30, so the angle is ...

C = arccos((35² +48² -30²)/(2·35·48)) = arccos(2629/3360) ≈ 38.515°

The angle the cable makes with the pole is about 38.5°.

Explain why 2+x and x+3 are equivalent

wlad13 [49]

Check whether the two expressions 2x+3y2x+3y and 2y+3x2y+3x equivalent.

The first expression is the sum of 2x2x 's and 3y3y 's whereas the second one is the sum of 3x3x 's and 2y2y 's.

Let us evaluate the expressions for some values of xx and yy . Take x=0x=0 and y=1y=1 .

2(0)+3(1)=0+3=32(1)+3(0)=2+0=22(0)+3(1)=0+3=32(1)+3(0)=2+0=2

So, there is at least one pair of values of the variables for which the two expressions are not the same.
