Hello there! The answer to your question is a = 4.
To solve for a in the equation -4 + 4a = 12 you want to isolate, or separate, a from all of the equation's other values.
Our first step is to add 4 to both sides so the 4 cancels out on the left side.
-4+4 + 4a = 12+4
4a = 16
Next, we divide both sides by 4 to finish isolating a.
4/4a = 16/4
a = 4
Want to verify that this is correct? Place the value we found for a (4) into the equation in place of a and if it comes out as a true statement, the answer is correct.
-4 + 4(4) = 12
-4 + 16 = 12
12 = 12
Since 12 is in fact equal to 12, i can guarantee you that i have provided you with the correct answer. I hope this helps & have a great rest of your day! :)
"Two significant figures" means that a digit after the second one could actually be anything ... it wasn't measured. 'X' could be anything from 230 to 239. 'Y' could be anything from 400 to 409.
The greatest possible value of that fraction is. (239)/(409 squared) .
Answer:
x=3.5
Step-by-step explanation:
subract 5 on the other side, than divide by 2
Answer:
C
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle is total is 138 degrees. Part of the entire angle is already given (the 88 degree measure), so all you have to do is subtract 88 from 138, which is 50.
We know that
applying the law of cosines
a² = b²+ c²<span> – 2*b*c*cos(A)
</span>
in this problem
a=?
b=20
c=9
A=90°
so
a² = b²+ c² – 2*b*c*cos(A)
but
cos (A)=0
a² = b²+ c²-----> 20²+9²----> a²=400+81----> a²=481-----> a=√481
a=21.93-----> a=22
the answer is
22
