Answer:
Kelsey is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
One of the rules when solving an equation is that you need to isolate the variable, meaning that it just needs to be x by itself. To do that, you would need to start by subtracting 6. If you were to divide by 3 first, the answer would be twice what it should be.
Answer: About 3.06
Step-by-step explanation:
We can use trigonometry functions to solve for AC. Let the ?, representing AC, be "x" in our mathematical work.
Since we have the hypotenuse and x is adjacent to the angle given, I am going to use cosine.
cos(θ) = 
cos(40) = 
0.766 ≈
3.06 ≈ x
x ≈ 3.06
Any time you have a fraction within an equation, multiply the entire equation by the denominator to clear the fraction. Since the lead term is negative, we can multiply that away as well
(-14) (0=-1/14x²+4x+5) [now distribute]
0=x²-56x+70 [try to factor into binomials first]
Since 70 only has prime factors of 2·5·7, there is no combination which equals (-56). Use the quadratic formula, or complete the square. I'll use quadratic:
x=<u>-b+/-√(b²-4ac)</u>
2a
a=1, b=(-56), c=70
x= <u>-(-56)+/- √((-56)²-4(1)(70)</u>
2(1)
x= <u>56+/- √(3136-280)
</u> 2
<u />x=<u>56+/-√(2856)</u>
2
x=<u>56+/-√(2³·3·119)</u>
2
x=<u>56+/-2√(714)</u>
2
x=28+√714; x=28-√714
