Vanyuwa [196]

-6x - 10 > 14 + 2x

-2x -2x

-8x - 10 > 14 THIS IS THE MISSING STEP

+10 +10

-8x > 24

$\frac{-8x}{-8}$ $\frac{24}{-8}$

Solve the right triangle shown in the figure BC = 1.6in< A=48.8 C =90

yKpoI14uk [10]

Drawing a diagram to represent the information you've given, the only angle we are missing is B. We can find that by subtracting the two we're given from 180:
180 - 90 - 48.8 = 41.2
m∠B = 41.2°.
We can use the angles and the one side we're given to find the remaining sides. Since we do not know the length of the hypotenuse, AB, we cannot use sine or cosine. We must use tangent (the ratio for tangent is opposite/adjacent):
$\tan 41.2 = \frac{x}{1.6}$
Multiply both sides by 1.6:
$1.6 \tan 41.2 = x
\\ 3.67 = x$
This is the length of side AC, which is opposite to angle B.
To find the length of AB we can use the Pythagorean Theorem:
$(1.6)^2+(3.67)^2=c^2
\\ 2.56+13.4689=c^2
\\ 16.0289=c^2
\\ \sqrt{16.0289} = \sqrt{c^2}
\\ 4=c$
The length of side AC, the hypotenuse, is 4 inches.

In your own words, explain why there is no solution to the following equation:| x-6|= -8 Also, knowing this, how does it help to

solniwko [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

So the two lines before and after the expression means absolute value, or modulus of, knowing this, it means that the answer must always yield positive. So if x-6 is positive, it will stay positive, if x-6 is negative, it will turn positive, therefore it can never yield a negative value.

Now im assuming the second question is meant to be absolute value of x-5 is less than 0, because it makes no sense otherwise.

So now knowing that x-5 is always positive, or 0, but this inequality only wants less than 0, this means there are no solutions for the inequality.
