Answer: x=-17


Step-by-step explanation:

We first distribute the -12 across to the (x+5)

144=-12(x+5)

144=-12x-60

Then, we add 60 to both sides.

204 = -12x

Lastly, we divide the equation by -12.

204/-12 = -12x/-12

-17 = x

Answer:


Step-by-step explanation:

114=-12(x+5)

Use the Distributive Property of Multiplication (distribute the -12 to the x and 5).

144=-12x-60

Add 60 to both sides of the equal sign to get -12x by itself.

144+60=-12x-60+60

204=-12x

Divide both sides of the equal sign to isolate the variable.

204/-12=-12x/-12

-17=x (<<<Answer)

Jordan throws a ball from a cliff 12 feet above the ground with an initial velocity of 32 feet per second. In the following func
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

Your answer will be the third function

Step-by-step explanation:

The base function you need to know is h(t)= 1/2at^2

Your acceleration in this problem is going to be gravity which they give to you, 32 feet per second squared. Since the ball is falling, it means it will have negative acceleration. Now you have the equation h(t)= -16t^2. The final step is to add the initial height from which the ball was dropped giving you: h(t)= -16t^2 +12

Use the arc length formula and the given information to find r. Show your work for full credit. s = 8.1 ft θ = (3.14/3)rad r = ?
VladimirAG [237]
This question is simple I'm a little confused on the specifics so I will try my best to help.

s=θ(r)
arc length = angle x radius
2.46888m(or 8.1 ft) = (π/3) x r
r =  (\pi /3)/2.46888
r = .425m

For this right triangle, find the measure of angle g.<br> angle g = ?°
love history [14]

The sum of the interior angles of all triangles is 180 degrees. This is a right triangle, thus we know two interior angle values (90 degrees and 29 degrees). To find the third, set the sum of all interior angle values equal to 180 and solve for g.

180 = 90 + 29 + g

Collect like terms.

180 = 119 + g

Subtract 119 from both sides.

61 = g

Find the sum using 61 for g to check work.

180 = 90 + 29 + g

180 = 90 + 29 + 61

180 = 180

Answer:

m∠g = 61°
