Answer:

Let C be the position of a person in a helicopter. A,B be two objects lying opposite to each other on either bank of a river.

Let AD=x,BD=y

In ΔACD,

⇒tan30

o

=

AD

CD

​

⇒

3

​

1

​

=

x

700

​

⇒x=130

3

​

⇒x=130(1.732)=1212.4

∴ the width of the river =x+y

=1212.4+130

=1342.4m

Solve for the unknown variable 2/5(3x-4)=-4
Elanso [62]

Answer:

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for x:

(2 (3 x - 4))/5 = -4

Multiply both sides of (2 (3 x - 4))/5 = -4 by 5/2:

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = -4×5/2

5/2×2/5 = (5×2)/(2×5):

(5×2)/(2×5) (3 x - 4) = -4×5/2

5/2 (-4) = (5 (-4))/2:

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = (-4×5)/2

(5×2 (3 x - 4))/(2×5) = (2×5)/(2×5)×(3 x - 4) = 3 x - 4:

3 x - 4 = (-4×5)/2

(-4)/2 = (2 (-2))/2 = -2:

3 x - 4 = 5×-2

5 (-2) = -10:

3 x - 4 = -10

Add 4 to both sides:

3 x + (4 - 4) = 4 - 10

4 - 4 = 0:

3 x = 4 - 10

4 - 10 = -6:

3 x = -6

Divide both sides of 3 x = -6 by 3:

(3 x)/3 = (-6)/3

3/3 = 1:

x = (-6)/3

The gcd of -6 and 3 is 3, so (-6)/3 = (3 (-2))/(3×1) = 3/3×-2 = -2:

Answer:  x = -2
