3/4(x + 3) = 9<br><br><br> How do I solve this
Sonbull [250]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

so first distribute the 3/4 to everything on the inside

3/4x + 1 1/2 = 9

now subtract 1 1/2 on both sides

3/4x = 7 1/2

Now divide both sides by 3/4

x = 7 1/2 divided by 3/4

x = 15/2 divided by 3/4

x = 15/2 times 4/3

x = 5/1 times 2/1

x = 10

Scilla [17]
Answer: Assuming the riders starts at the position (20, 0) on the x-axis, the exact position of the rider will be (20cos75, 20sin75) or about (5.18, 19.32).

The angle for 5pi/12 radians is 75 degrees. Therefore, to find the position we can use the sine and cosine of 75 to find the x and y value of the coordinate.

For the y-value, we can write and solve:
sin75 = x/20

For the x-value, we can write and solve:
cos75 = x/20
