-3(s-1) + 5s
we are going to distribute the -3 through the parenthesis...all that means is multiply -3 by everything in the parenthesis.
-3 * s + (-3)* -1 + 5s
-3s + 3 + 5s...now we combine like terms
-3s + 5s + 3 = 
2s + 3

In ΔRST, m &lt; R = 104°, r = 20, and t = 10. Find the m &lt; S, to nearest degree.
Mrrafil [7]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  47°

Step-by-step explanation:

The law of sines helps you find angle T. From there, you can find angle S.

  sin(T)/t = sin(R)/r

  sin(T) = (t/r)sin(R) = (10/20)sin(104°)

  T = arcsin(sin(104°)/2) ≈ 29°

Then angle S is ...

  S = 180° -R -T = 180° -104° -29°

  ∠S = 47°

Which of the following is the inverse of y=12^x
Elenna [48]
y=12^x\ \ \ |log_{12}\\\\\log_{12}y=\log_{12}12^x\\\\\log_{12}y=x\log_{12}12\\\\x=\log_{12}y


y=12^x\to y^{-1}=\log_{12}x;\ x\in\mathbb{R^+}\to\ y^{-1}=\dfrac{\log x}{\log12};\ x\in\mathbb{R^+}\to y^{-1}=\dfrac{\ln x}{\ln 12}

Used:\\\\\log_aa=1\\\\\log_ab^n=n\log_ab\\\\\log_ab=\dfrac{\log_cb}{\log_ca}

The maximum weight on a roller coaster is 400 pounds. If your friend weighs 120 pounds, what is the most that you can weigh so y
wolverine [178]
The maximum weight on a roller coaster is 400 pounds (Max = 400).
If your friend weighs 120 pounds (y = 120), what is the most you can weigh so you can ride together (x + y < 400).

x + 120 <_ 400.
y = 120

Subtract 120 from both sides.

x <_ 280.

You can weigh at most 280 pounds (x <_ 280).

I  hope this helps!
