Answer:

1/8(x - 49)

Step-by-step explanation:

When we factor out something, we are basically finding common factors from multiple terms to take out. Example:

ab + ac; factored out: a(b + c)

If we want to factor out 1/8 from 1/8x - 49/8, we simply divide the two terms by 1/8.

$\frac{1/8}{1/8x}$ The 1/8 cancel out giving us x so:

1/8(x - __)

The next term,

$\frac{49/8}{1/8}$

When two fractions divide, you flip the bottom one and multiply them both,

$\frac{49}{8} *\frac{8}{1}$

giving us 49.

The answer is: 1/8(x - 49)

Alex is standing 60 feet from the base of a flagpole. He measures the angle of elevation to the top of the pole as 35º. Vera is

ivanzaharov [21]

Answer:

49.4 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

In Triangle AXY,

$Tan 35^0=\frac{|XY|}{60} \\|XY|=60*Tan 35^0=42.01\:feet\\$Therefore, Height of the pole=42.01 \:feet$

We want to determine the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole, which is the angle at V in the diagram.

In Triangle XVY

|VY|=36 feet

$Tan \theta=\frac{|XY|}{|VY|} \\Tan \theta=\frac{42.01}{36}\\ \theta=arctan(\frac{42.01}{36})\\ \theta=49.4^0$

Therefore, the angle of elevation from the point Vera is standing to the top of the flagpole is 49.4 degree to the nearest tenth of a degree.

When x=8 y=20. What is y when x=42?

Sergeu [11.5K]

If you would like to know what is y when x = 42, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x = 8 ... y = 20
x = 42 ... y = ?

8 * y = 20 * 42 /8
y = 20 * 42 / 8
y = 105

The correct result would be: y = 105 when x = 42.

jek_recluse [69]

Answer:

64 softballs

Step-by-step explanation:

Coach Beard currently already has 24 softballs.

When she orders 2 more buckets with 20 in each, that's another 20 + 20 = 40 softballs added to the original 24. So, let's add these two numbers:

24 + 40 = 64

The answer is 64 softballs.
