Answer:

$x=1.5$

Step-by-step explanation:

Cancel $\frac{2}{4}=\frac{1}{2}$

Divide the numbers $\frac{8}{4} =2$

Subtract $\frac{1}{2}$ from both sides.

And SIMPLIFY.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Isolate the x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other.

Subtract 2/4 from both sides

x + 2/4 (-2/4) = 8/4 (-2/4)j

x = 8/4 - 2/4

Simplify

x = (8 - 2)/4

x = 6/4

Simplify. Change the improper fraction into mixed fraction

x = 6/4 = (4/4 + 2/4) = 1 2/4

1 2/4 simplified = 1 1/2

1 1/2 is your answer

PROBLEM SOLVING A game of bowling has ten frames. After five frames, your friend’s bowling score is 65 and your bowling score $x

Elodia [21]

Considering the situation described, we have that:

a. x = 65 - 8 = 57.

b. You won the game, as you scored 137 and your friend 130.

<h3>What is the equation for the situation after five frames?</h3>

Your friend's score is of 65, and your score of x is 8 less than your friend, hence the equation is:

x = 65 - 8 = 57.

<h3>What are the final scores?</h3>

Your friend score doubled, hence his/her final score is:

2 x 65 = 130.

Your score increased by 80, hence your final score is:

57 + 80 = 137.

You won the game, as you scored 137 and your friend 130.

To estimate the height of a house Katie stood a certain distance from the house and determined that the angle of elevation to th

Nata [24]

the height of the house is $408ft$ .

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Here we have , To estimate the height of a house Katie stood a certain distance from the house and determined that the angle of elevation to the top of the house was 32 degrees. Katie then moved 200 feet closer to the house along a level street and determined the angle of elevation was 42 degrees. We need to find What is the height of the house . Let's find out:

Let y is the unknown height of the house, and x is the unknown number of feet she is standing from the house.

Distance of house from point A( initial point ) = x ft

Distance of house from point B( when she traveled 200 ft towards street = x-200 ft

Now , According to question these scenarios are of right angle triangle as

At point A

⇒ $Tan32 =\frac{Perpendicular}{Base}= \frac{y}{x}$
