Make 2SM = RN.

2(3x - 4) = 9x - 20

Distribute 2 inside the parentheses.

6x - 8 = 9x - 20

Subtract 9x from both sides.

-3x - 8 = -20

Add 8 to both sides.

-3x = -12

Divide both sides by -3.

x = 4

NP = SM, so NP = 4.

Answer:

b. -36/77

Step-by-step explanation:

As 0 < x < $\pi$ /2 => tan x > 0

As 0< y < $\pi$ /2 => tan y > 0

We have the formula:

$\frac{1}{sin^{2}x } =1 + cot^{2}x$ => $\frac{1}{(8/17)^{2} }$ = $1+cot^{2}x$ => $cot^{2} x=225/64$

As tan x = 1/(cotx) => $tan^{2}x = \frac{1}{cot^{2}x} =\frac{1}{225/64} = \frac{64}{225}$

As tan x > 0 => tan x = 8/15

$\frac{1}{cos^{2}y } = 1+tan^{2}y$ => $\frac{1}{(3/5)^{2} } = 1 + tan^{2} y$ => $tan^{2}y=\frac{16}{9}$

As tan y > 0 => tan y = 4/3

As tan (x-y)= $\frac{tan x - tan y}{1+ tanx * tany}$ $=\frac{(8/15)-(4/3)}{1+(8/15)*(4/3)} = \frac{-36}{77}$

Suppose y varies directly as x and y=36 when x=4 find y when x=11

yarga [219]

It equals 99. 4 times 9 equals 36. 11 times 9 equals 99.

Answer:

A, x>3

Step-by-step explanation:

You solve the equation as normal by crossing out both sides and getting what equals to x, but since you divided by a negative the sign flips and you are left with your answer. Hope this helps!
