20 = 8 + 3(12 + 4x)

First, distribute 3:

20 = 8 + 36 + 12x

Add:

20 = 44 + 12x

Subtract 44 to both sides:

-24 = 12x

Divide 12 to both sides:

x = -2

So first, you have to remember the order of operations. That means that whatever is in the parentheses is what has to be done first
However, because one of the numbers in the parentheses is a variable and the other isn't, we can distribute instead
Therefore, 3(12+4x) distributes by multiplying the 3 into both numbers in the parentheses. So we get 36+12x
Now the equation is 20=8+36+12x
Now, bring all numbers without variables on the left side

20-8-36=8-8+36-36+12x
20-8-36=12x

Now simplify

20-8-36=12x
12-36=12x
-24=12x

Divide both sides by 12, and you get x=-2

Hope this helped!!! :D

Find b in triangle TRG. Please help, I'm not sure how to solve for b.
Marina CMI [18]

Answer:

b=4.9

C. is the correct option.

Step-by-step explanation:

In triangle TGN,

Let <RTG be x

cosx= b/h

or, cosx = 2/a

Again,

In triangle TRG,

cosx = b/h

(for bigger right angled triangle)

cosx = a/(4+2)

cosx = a/6

Now

cosx = 2/a = a/6

or, 2/a = a/6

or, 12 = a²

so, a² = 12

Now,

For TRG,

h² = p²+b²

or, 6² = b² + a²(a²=12)

or, 6² = b² + 12

or, 36 = b² + 12

or, 36 -12 = b²

or, b² = 24

or, b = square root 24

so, b = 4.8989

so, b = 4.9

2sin^2 2x=2<br><br> In the domain [0,2pi)<br><br> What can x equal ( in radians).
lions [1.4K]
Bear in mind that, when it comes to trigonometric functions, the location of the exponent can be a bit misleading, however recall that sin²(θ) is really [ sin( θ )]²,


\bf 2sin^2(2x)=2\implies sin^2(2x)=\cfrac{2}{2}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;sin^2(2x)=1\implies [sin(2x)]^2=1\implies sin(2x)=\pm\sqrt{1}&#10;\\\\\\&#10;sin(2x)=\pm 1\implies sin^{-1}[sin(2x)]=sin^{-1}(\pm 1)

\bf \measuredangle 2x=sin^{-1}(\pm 1)\implies \measuredangle 2x=&#10;\begin{cases}&#10;\frac{\pi }{2}\\\\&#10;\frac{3\pi }{2}&#10;\end{cases}\\\\&#10;-------------------------------\\\\&#10;\measuredangle 2x=\cfrac{\pi }{2}\implies \measuredangle x=\cfrac{\pi }{4}\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \measuredangle 2x=\cfrac{3\pi }{2}\implies \measuredangle x=\cfrac{3\pi }{4}
