We know that the trigonometric identity that uses the adjacent side and the hypotenuse is cosine. We can set this up as:

We need to solve for x, so let's isolate it:

So,
x = 10.2 units
Answer: she is NOT correct the answer should be X= 19
How?:
the equation was 5x = 95
the 5 and x is being multiplied the opposite of multiplication is dividing
so 95/5= 19
therefor x= 19 and NOT 90
To answer this question we will have to understand the nature of
.
can be rewritten as:
. Now,
is an irrational number and thus any of the four operations of addition, multiplication, subtraction or division placed anywhere between any of these terms will always result in an irrational number.
The only way irrational numbers can be made rational is by dividing or multiplying the given irrational number by the same irrational number.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bringing like terms on one side
2 + 7 - 5 = 2x - 4x
9 - 5 = - 2x
4 = - 2x
4/ - 2 = x
- 2 = x
