Answer:

The box should be replaced with 3

Step-by-step explanation:

Represent the box with n

Given

n(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) + 4

Required

Determine the value of n

n(x - 3) + 2x = -(x - 5) + 4

Open Bracket:

n(x - 3) + 2x = -x + 5 + 4

n(x - 3) + 2x = -x + 9

Collect Like Terms

n(x - 3)  = -2x-x + 9

n(x - 3)  = -3x + 9

Factorize the expression on the left hand side

n(x - 3)  = -3(x - 3)

Divide both sides by x - 3

n = 3

Hence:

The box should be replaced with 3

Given the functions f(x) = x + 4 and g(x) = x2 − x find the value of each expression below.
dexar [7]

f(x) = x + 4

g(x) = x² - x

a) f(5)

f(5) = 5 + 4 = 9

b) g(-1)

g(-1) = (-1)² -(-1) = 1 + 1 = 2

c) f(x) = 10

10 = x + 4

x = 6

d) g(x) = 6

6 = x² - x

0 = x² - x - 6

0 = (x - 3)(x + 2)

x = 3, -2

The angle of depression from the top of a 150 m high cliff to a boat at sea is 7 degrees. How much closer to the cliff must the
BigorU [14]
The first thing we need to do is use tan to find x. If the original angle of depression is 7 degrees, then the angle from the cliff to the bow of the boat is 90-7=83 degrees. Thus,<span>tan83 = <span>d / 150</span></span>or we can express it like this:<span>d =150 tan 83 ≈ 855.2</span><span>where d is the total distance from the boat to the cliff when the angle of depression is 7 degrees. Hope this helps a lot</span>
