12x - 84 = 4x + 12. What does X equal?

Mathematics

Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem, you have to leave the x alone,

To do so, you have to add 84 on each side

12x = 4x + 96

Then, subtract 4x on each side,

8x = 96

Then divide each side by 8, so

x = 12

Hope it helps!!

Let me know if I'm wrong or you need help on anything else!!

Also, if you're okay with it, can you plz make be brainliest?

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

12x - 84 = 4x + 12

We want to move x to one side and all other values to the other side of the equal sign

Add 84 to both sides of the equation

12x - 84 + 84 = 4x + 12 + 84

Simplify

12x = 4x + 96

Subtract 4x from both sides

12x - 4x = 4x - 4x + 96

Simplify

8x = 96

Divide both sides by 8

8x /8 = 96/8

Simplify

x = 12

<h3>Answer:  A.  18*sqrt(3)</h3>

=============================================

Explanation:

We'll need the tangent rule

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

tan(R) = TH/HR

tan(30) = TH/54

sqrt(3)/3 = TH/54 ... use the unit circle

54*sqrt(3)/3 = TH .... multiply both sides by 54

(54/3)*sqrt(3) = TH

18*sqrt(3) = TH

TH = 18*sqrt(3) which points to <u>choice A</u> as the final answer

----------------------

An alternative method:

Triangle THR is a 30-60-90 triangle.

Let x be the measure of side TH. This side is opposite the smallest angle R = 30, so we consider this the short leg.

The hypotenuse is twice as long as x, so TR = 2x. This only applies to 30-60-90 triangles.

Now use the pythagorean theorem

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(TH)^2 + (HR)^2 = (TR)^2

(x)^2 + (54)^2 = (2x)^2

x^2 + 2916 = 4x^2

2916 = 4x^2 - x^2

3x^2 = 2916

x^2 = 2916/3

x^2 = 972

x = sqrt(972)

x = sqrt(324*3)

x = sqrt(324)*sqrt(3)

x = 18*sqrt(3) which is the length of TH.

A slightly similar idea is to use the fact that if y is the long leg and x is the short leg, then y = x*sqrt(3). Plug in y = 54 and isolate x and you should get x = 18*sqrt(3). Again, this trick only works for 30-60-90 triangles.

I dont know how to do this pls help ​
Alecsey [184]

Answer:

1) 225

2) 2304

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

Use geometric mean of legs

x = \sqrt{(16+9)^2 * 9^2} = \sqrt{25^2 * 9^2}  = 25 * 9 = 225

2)

Use geometric mean of altitude

x = \sqrt{(100-36)^2 * 36^2} = \sqrt{64^2 * 36^2} = 64 * 36 = 2304

What is the equation of the following line written in slope-intercept form?
nasty-shy [4]
SOLUTION:

To begin with, let's establish that the formula of this line is in slope-intercept form as follows:

y = mx

The formula for this line isn't:

y = mx + b

This is as this line doesn't have a y-intercept ( b ) as it passes through the origin instead. This means that ( b ) would be rendered useless in this formula as it would just bring us back to the y = mx formula as displayed below:

y = mx + b
y = mx + 0
y = mx

Moving on, for ( m ), we need to find the gradient of the line as displayed below:

m = gradient
m = rise / run
m = 10 / 2
m = 5

Now, we must simply substitue ( m ) into the formula in order to obtain the equation for this line as displayed below:

y = mx
y = 5x

Therefore, the answer is:

A. y = 5x

If I understand your question correctly then it's simple all you have to do is use the numbers in the place of the b and c so the question would be what is 8-7 which equals 1
