Solve for x: two thirds(x − 2) = 4x.

1 answer:
Sveta_85 [38]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

x =  - 0.4

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{2}{3} (x - 2) = 4x

Expand with the distributive rule:

\frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{2}{3}  \times 2 = 4x

\frac{2}{3} x -  \frac{4}{3}  = 4x

Add 4/3 to both sides:

\frac{2}{3} x = 4x +  \frac{4}{3}

Subtract 4x from both sides

- \frac{10}{3} x =  \frac{4}{3}

- 10x = 4

x =  - 0.4

Find the radius of this circle.<br> A = ar2<br> r = [?] ft<br> A = 9aft?
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

A = \pi . r^2

If A = 9\pift^2

\pi . r^2 = 9\pift^2

r^2 = 9ft^2

r = sqrt(9ft^2)

r = 3ft ( r>0)

-4(5k-7)-2k=-2(9k+5)
Mice21 [21]
If you distribute -4 through (5k-7), it equals -20k + 28. Then put on the other -2k on that side of the equals sign and you should have -22k + 28 = -2(9k+5) Then you need to distribute -2 through (9k+5) which equals -18k - 10. You then should have -22k+28=-18k-10. Add 22k to both sides to cancel it out, then you should have 28=4k-10. Add 10 to both sides to get the 4k by itself, which will be 38=4k, then divide both sides by 4 to get k by itself. 38/4 = 19/2. k = 19/2

PLEASE ANSWER WILL GIVE POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

1) 27.374

2)9.177

Step-by-step explanation:

1) To get the value of x , we use the appropriate trigonometric ratio

From what we are given;

we have the hypotenuse ( the side facing the right angle) and the adjacent

The trigonometric identity to use here is the cos

The cos of an angle is the ratio of the adjacent to the hypotenuse

cos 64 = 12/x

x = 12/cos 64

x = 27.374

2) Here, we are given the hypotenuse and the opposite

The trigonometric ratio to use here is the sine

the sine of an angle is the ratio of the opposite to the hypotenuse

thus, we have it that;

sin 35 = x/16

x = 16 sin 35

x = 9.177
