First, we distribute the 2 through the parenthesis.

3x+2x+8=5(x+1)+3

Then we distribute the 5 through the parenthesis

3x+2x+8=5x+5+3

Collect the like terms

5x+8=5x+5+3

Add the numbers

5x+8=5x+8

The statement is true for any value of x, because both sides are identical

An observer at the top of a 532 foot cliff measures the angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground t

Over [174]

Answer:

Distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground = 7608 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Height of the cliff is 532 feet, angle of depression from the top of the cliff to a point on the ground is equal to 4 degrees.

To find: distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground

Solution:

In ΔABC,

$\angle ACB=4^{\circ}$ (Alternate interior angles)

For any angle $\theta$ , $\tan \theta =$ side opposite to angle/side adjacent to angle

$\tan C=\frac{AB}{BC}$

Put $AB=532\,,\,\angle C=4^{\circ}$

$\tan 4^{\circ}=\frac{532}{BC}\\\\BC=\frac{532}{\tan 4^{\circ}}\\\\=7607.95\\\\\approx 7608\,\,feet$

Distance from the base of the cliff to the point on the ground = 7608 feet

Grayson works in a department store selling clothing. He makes a guaranteed salary

MrRissso [65]

Step-by-step explanation:

a) $350 per week

20% commission on sales

For $925 in sales, commission is

20/100 × 925 = $185

Total earning = $350 + $185 = $535

b) For $x in sales, commission is

20/100 × x = 1/5 × x = x/5 or 0.2x

Total earnings = $350 + $ x/5 or $350 + $0.2x
