Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer should be X= -3
Answer:
The distance between the ship at N 25°E and the lighthouse would be 7.26 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is incomplete. The complete question should be
The bearing of a lighthouse from a ship is N 37° E. The ship sails 2.5 miles further towards the south. The new bearing is N 25°E. What is the distance between the lighthouse and the ship at the new location?
Given the initial bearing of a lighthouse from the ship is N 37° E. So,
is 37°. We can see from the diagram that
would be
143°.
Also, the new bearing is N 25°E. So,
would be 25°.
Now we can find
. As the sum of the internal angle of a triangle is 180°.

Also, it was given that ship sails 2.5 miles from N 37° E to N 25°E. We can see from the diagram that this distance would be our BC.
And let us assume the distance between the lighthouse and the ship at N 25°E is 
We can apply the sine rule now.

So, the distance between the ship at N 25°E and the lighthouse is 7.26 miles.
Answer: A...................................
2(x-5)=20
Divide both sides by 2 (division of property equality)
x - 5 = 10
Add 5 to both sides (addition of property equality)
x = 15
Answer
x = 15 is the solution
Answer:
x = - 5, x = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² + x - 20
To find the zeros equate f(x) to zero, that is
x² + x - 20 = 0
Consider the factors of the constant term ( - 20) which sum to give the coefficient of the x- term ( + 1)
The factors are + 5 and - 4, since
5 × - 4 = - 20 and + 5 - 4 = + 1, hence
(x + 5)x - 4) = 0 ← in factored form
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 5 = 0 ⇒ x = - 5
x - 4 = 0 ⇒ x = 4
