Answer:

Each friend ate 4 tacos.

Step-by-step explanation:

"4 of his friends ate s tacos" is unclear. I assume it should be

"4 of his friends ate s tacos each."

total tacos = 2 + 4s = 18

4s = 16

s = 4

His four friends ate a total of 16 tacos, each friend eating 4 tacos.

Ricky's reason, i.e., that 6s = 18, is incorrect.

6s = 4s+2s, where 4s is what his friends ate in total.

That implies that Ricky ate 2s tacos, instead of 2 tacos. If 2s = 2 then s = 1, but then 6s ≠ 18.

We know

$\boxed{\sf cos\Theta=\dfrac{b}{h}}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto cos22=\dfrac{x}{47}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto 0.9=\dfrac{x}{47}$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=47(0.9)$

$\\ \sf\longmapsto x=42.3$

Lelu [443]

Answer:

Hence the expression $(x+8)(x+3)=x^{2}+11 x+24$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

- The given expression is (x+8)(x+3).

- We have to multiply the given expression.

- Multiply the (x+8) by 3 , multiply the (x+8) by x then add like terms.

$\begin{array}{r}x+8 \\\underline {\times \quad x+3} \\3 x+24 \\\underline {x^{2}+8 x+24} \\x^{2}+11 x+24\end{array}$
