Ok, so the set up would be 3x+8 = 5x-40. If you solve for x you can then enter it into the equation and get your answer.
So subtract 3x from 3x and 5x. That leaves you with 8 = 2x-40
Next, you add 40 to both sides leaving you with 48 = 2x
Now divide 2 from x and 48 which give x = 24
Enter the value of x into the equation 3x+8
3(24)+8
80
And because we know it is an acute angle, angle ABC = 80 degrees
Answer:
24
Step-by-step explanation:
(72/-9) / (-1/3)
72/-9) x (-3/1)
(72)*(-3) = - 216/ -9
= 24
The distance between two points is the number of units between them
The expression that represents the distance between the points is x - 4
<h3>How to determine the expression</h3>
The points are given as: (4,8) and (x,8)
The distance (d) between points is calculated using:
So, we have:
Evaluate the difference
Evaluate the exponent
Evaluate the sum
Evaluate the exponent
Hence, the expression that represents the distance between the points is x - 4
