Solve the absolute value equation.
First subtract 5 from both sides.
|x|+5=18
|x|=13
If the absolute value of x is 13 that x equals 13 and -13. Absolute value means distance from 0.
x=13,-13
The original answer for that question would be 303.55. The best estimate when you round to the nearest tenth the approximate answer would be 303.6 because the 5 in the hundredths place rounds the 5 in the tenths place to a 6. So the approximate answer would be 303.6....hope this helps.
Answer:
777.9 meters
Step-by-step explanation:
Notice that the angles of the right triangle are 40 and 50 degrees, with the 500 meter side adjacent to the 50 degree angle. Now, we can set up an equation: cos (50 degrees) = 500 / x. Use a calculator to find that the answer is 777.9.
