Cx+5c=7c solve for x assume c doesn't equal 0

Mathematics
1 answer:
Helen [10]3 years ago
8 0
Because we've assumed c \neq 0, we can safely divide by c (if c could equal zero, we would have to account for the case in which doing so would be to divide by zero).  Hence, we have:

\begin{aligned} x+5=7 \end{aligned}

Subtracting 5 from both sides gives x = \boxed{2}.

What is the percentage change for 60 to 35
Reil [10]
Let x represent the percentage change. The percentage change is a factor that the original number is multiplied to get the new number.

60*x = 35
x = 35/65 = 0.53846 = 53.846%

Find three right triangles based upon the Pythagorean Triple of 8, 15, and 17. Explain how you know these are triangles.
Luba_88 [7]
A^2 + b^2 = c^2
8^2 + 15^2 = 17^2
64 + 225 = 289
289=289
It is a triangle because the numbers match the Pythagorean Theorem.

Explain a real life situation where you may use trig ratios to find measure in right triangles.
OLEGan [10]
One example is if you wanted to measure the height of a tall building. You'll need to measure the distance from where you're standing to the base of the building. You'll also need the angle of elevation. To get the angle of elevation, start by looking completely horizontal, then tilt upward until your eyeline reaches the top of the building. Once you have those two things (the side and angle) you can use the tangent ratio to find the height. This is because

tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent

where in this case
angle = angle of elevation
opposite = height of building
adjacent = distance from your position to the base of the building

It takes a bit of algebra, but the opposite side can be solved for. You'll most likely need a calculator to compute the tangent ratio.
