Answer:

6 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the board, 12 feet, will be the hypotenuse of the right triangle.  The measure of the distance from the board to the wall will be the unknown leg.  This is adjacent to the 60° angle.  This gives us the ratio

adjacent/hypotenuse, which is the ratio for cosine.  This gives us the equation

cos 60 = x/12

Multiply both sides by 12:

12(cos 60) = (x/12)(12)

12(cos 60) = x

6 = x

The board is 6 feet from the wall.

Can you please help me?!

Answer:

d) x=5

Go to station 10

Step-by-step explanation:

-\left(1+7x\right)-6\left(-7-x\right)=36

Expand:

-1-7x+42+6x=36

-x+41=36

Subtract 41 from both sides:

-x+41-41=36-41

-x=-5

Divide both sides by -1:

\frac{-x}{-1}=\frac{-5}{-1}

x=5

Adding and subtracting the given polynomials
Usimov [2.4K]

You have to combine like terms, so the variable (x, y, s, d, c....) and the exponents must be the same in order to combine them.

For example:

x² + x³    Since they don't have the same exponent, you can't combine them

y² + 3y² = 4y²

23x + x = 24x

4. 2s² + 1 + s² - 2s + 1    You can rearrange it if it makes it easier

2s² + s² - 2s + 1 + 1 = 3s² - 2s + 2

5. 5t² - 2t - 1 - (3t² - 5t + 7) Distribute/multiply the - to (3t² - 5t + 7)

5t² - 2t - 1 - 3t² + 5t - 7 = 2t² + 3t - 8

Do the same for #9 and #10, and you should get:

9. 2k² + 5k - 9

10. 6y³ - 7y² - 6y - 12
