<span>A. Given the equation 4x + 7 = 3(2x − 5), solve for the variable. 
</span>4x + 7 = 3(2x − 5)
<span>4x + 7 = 6x - 15 (distributive property of multiplication)
4x - 6x = -15 - 7 (transitive property)
-2x = -22
x = 11

B. Sam solved a similar equation below. Is Sam's solution correct? Explain why or why not.

5x − 1 = 2(x + 4)
5x − 1 = 2x + 8
7x − 1 = 8
7x = 7
x = 1

Sam's solution is incorrect, this is the correct solution
</span>5x − 1 = 2(x + 4)
5x − 1 = 2x + 8
5x − 2x = 8 + 1
3x = 9
x = 3

Answer:

(A) 1

(B) -2

(C) 3.5

(D) -0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We can treat each thermometer like a vertical number line and read the values on each.

A is right on 1.

B is right on -2.

C is in the middle of 3 and 4, so 3.5

D is in the middle of 0 and -1, so -0.5

Hope this helped!

Find the value of x round to the nearest tenth, i'm good with all other trigonometry lol
liraira [26]

Answer:

8.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The sides involved are opposite and adjacent to the given angle. Therefore, you should use the tangent ratio.

Substitute:

tanx = opp/adj

tan35 = x/12

Multiply by 12 on both sides:

12(tan35) = (x/12)12

12(tan35) = x

Solve:

12(tan35) = x

8.4 = x
