Answer:

Yes, x + 12

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the following:

3 x - 2 x + 12

Grouping like terms, 3 x - 2 x + 12 = (3 x - 2 x) + 12:

(3 x - 2 x) + 12

3 x - 2 x = x:

Answer: x + 12

Answer:

<em>Yes, it is.</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

3x + 12 - 2x =

Use the commutative property of addition to change the order of the addition.

= 12 + 3x - 2x

Use the distributive property of addition over multiplication in reverse (which is factoring).

= 12 + x(3 - 2)

Do the operation: 3 - 2 = 1

= 12 + x * 1

Simplify x * 1 to just x.

= 12 + x

Use the commutative property of addition.

= x + 12

There you have x + 12 from 3x + 12 - 2x by using properties and operations.

Ivan

Answer:

13.3650978628

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A=180-(Angle B+C)=180-117=63

Here,

b=BC, p=AC & AB=12

Using the relation of cos,

cosx=b/h

cos27=BC/15

15cos27=BC

Using a calculator,

BC=13.3650978628

Find the area of a sector with a central angle of 120° and a diameter of 7.3 cm. Round to the nearest tenth.
Andru [333]

Answer:14cm^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

diameter=7.3cm

radius=\frac{diameter}{2}

          =\frac{7.3}{2}

          =3.65cm

angle =120°

area=\frac{angle (tita)}{360} × \frac{\pi r^{2} }{1}

=\frac{120}{360} × \frac{22}{7} ×3.65^{2}

=13.95cm^{2}

≅14cm^{2}
