CHECK THE ATTACHMENT FOR THE FIGURE OF THE QUESTIONS

Answer:

Option A. is correct x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given figure

The adjacent of the given right angle triangle is

8 units which is the base,

Then x units is the opposite of the right angle triangle which is the height.

The hypotenuse side also has x units

Then value of x is required,

But going by right angle triangle trigonometry

cos(x) = adjacent / hypotenuse

Where adjacent= 8 unit

cos( 60) = 8/x

1/2 = 8/x

x = 8/2

= 4unit

Hence, Option A is correct, with 4 units

Answer:

1 gram

Step-by-step explanation:

1 milliliter (ml) of water weighs 1 gram (g). The prefix in front of the unit tells you how to move the decimal. 1 milliliter = 0.001 liters because "milli" means "thousandth". 1 "thousandth" of a liter = 0.001 liters.

The system of equations is graphed on the coordinate plane.

ehidna [41]

Answer: The solution is (3, -2)

This means that x = 3 and y = -2 pair up together.

=====================================================

Explanation:

The solution is where the two lines cross. Note if we started at the origin (0,0) and moved to the right 3 units, and then down 2 units, we would arrive at the location (3, -2).

-----------------

As a way to check, we can plug x = 3 into each equation. We should get y = -2 as a result for each equation

y = (-5/3)x + 3

y = (-5/3)*3 + 3

y = -5+3

y = -2

The first equation is confirmed. Let's check the second equation

y = (1/3)x - 3

y = (1/3)*3 - 3

y = 1 - 3

y = -2

Both equations have the y value equal -2 when x = 3. Therefore, the overall solution is confirmed.
