2x-10=2. (Answer=6)

2x=12 (you move the -10 to the other side of the equation to make it positive)

Then you divide by 2

2x divided by 2 equals x 12 divided by 2 is 6

So your number is 6. x=6

And you can check this by redoing the equation but putting 6 instead of x

2(6)-10=2

12-10=2

2=2

This equation is true therefore, your unknown number is 6

What is m∠C?<br><br> Round the value to the nearest degree.

Elis [28]

Answer: $m\angle C=53\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise you need to use the Inverse Trigonometric function arcsine, which is defined as the inverse function of the sine.

Then, to find an angle α, this is:

$\alpha =arcsin(\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse})$

In this case, you can identify that:

$\alpha =m\angle C\\\\opposite=AB=36\ cm\\\\hypotenuse=AC=45\ cm$

Then, substituting values into $\alpha =arcsin(\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse})$ and evaluating, you get that the measure of the angle "C" to the nearest degree, is:

$m\angle C=arcsin(\frac{36\ cm}{45\ cm})\\\\m\angle C=53\°$

How do you graph it on a line

Aleonysh [2.5K]

In order to draw x ≤ -10 on a number line, first draw a closed dot at -10. This is because we have a ≤ and not a <. If we had a <, it would be an open dot.

Next, since we want x to be smaller, draw an arrow pointing towards all numbers that are smaller. This arrow would point to the left.
