Hi there!

$\large\boxed{x = -5}$

Find the value of 8 by substituting in -18 for g(x):

-18 = 2x - 8

Add 8 to both sides:

-10 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

-10/2 = 2x/2

x = -5

Substitute g(x) = -18 in g(x) = 2x-8

$- 18 = 2x - 8 \\ 2x - 8 = - 18 \\ 2x = - 18 + 8 \\ 2x = - 10 \\ x = - 5$

Thus, x = -5 when g(x) = -18

Find the value of x.

son4ous [18]

Answer:

18.0

Step-by-step explanation:

==>Given:

Triangle with sides, 16, 30, and x, and a measure of an angle corresponding to x = 30°

==>Required:

Value of x to the nearest tenth

==>Solution:

Using the Cosine rule: c² = a² + b² - 2abcos(C)

Let c = x,

a = 16

b = 30

C = 30°

Thus,

c² = 16² + 30² - 2*16*30*cos 30°

c² = 256 + 900 - 960 * 0.8660

c² = 1,156 - 831.36

c² = 324.64

c = √324.64

c = 18.017769

x ≈ 18.0 (rounded to nearest tenth)

Find the value of x

AveGali [126]

Answer:

x = 120

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are supplementary, they add up to 180 degrees.

So, you can say x + x/2 = 180

Then, you would solve it like an algebra problem.

Multiply both sides by 2

2x + x = 360

Simplify

3x = 360

Divide both sides by 3

x = 120
