Answer:

The number is -6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Variable x = a number

Set up an equation:

3x + 12 = -6

Isolate variable x:

3x = -18

x = -6

Check your work:

3(-6) + 12 = -6

-18 + 12 = -6

-6 = -6

Correct!

Find the number that belongs in the green box. <br><br>round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

4.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Use sine rule to find the number that belongs to the box.

Thus:

$\frac{a}{sin(A)} = \frac{b}{sin(B)}$

a = ?? (the number in the green box)

b = 5

A = 38°

B = 42°

Plug in the values

$\frac{a}{sin(38)} = \frac{5}{sin(42)}$

Multiply both sides by sin(38)

$\frac{a}{sin(38)} \times sin(38) = \frac{5}{sin(42)} \times sin(38)$

$a = \frac{5 \times sin(38)}{sin(42)}$

$a = 4.6$ (nearest tenth)

What is the equation of a vertical line passing through the point (−5, −1)?

dangina [55]

Answer:

$\boxed{x=-5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a vertical line that passes through the point $(x_1,y_1)$ is given by;

$x=x_1$

The given point is $(-5,-1)$ .

This implies that,

$x=-5$

is therefore the equation of the vertical line that passes through $(-5,-1)$ .
