2.5x + 6 = 3.25x + 3

2.5x = 3.25x - 3

Solve for x:<br><br> 17x - 12 = 114 + 3x<br><br> Thanks!
wel

Answer:

x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

17x + -12 = 114 + 3x

Reorder the terms:

-12 + 17x = 114 + 3x

Solving

-12 + 17x = 114 + 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.

-12 + 17x + -3x = 114 + 3x + -3x

Combine like terms: 17x + -3x = 14x

-12 + 14x = 114 + 3x + -3x

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

-12 + 14x = 114 + 0

-12 + 14x = 114

Add '12' to each side of the equation.

-12 + 12 + 14x = 114 + 12

Combine like terms: -12 + 12 = 0

0 + 14x = 114 + 12

14x = 114 + 12

Combine like terms: 114 + 12 = 126

14x = 126

Divide each side by '14'.

x = 9

Simplifying

x = 9

In order to estimate the height of a building, two students stand at a certain distance from the building at street level. from
enyata [817]
Let h represent the height of the building. Then the difference between the two angle measurement locations is
.. h/tan(39°) -h/tan(50°) = 300 ft
.. h = (300 ft)/(1/tan(39°) -1/tan(50°))
.. h ≈ 758 ft

The height of the building is about 758 feet.
