Answer:
x = 3 and x = 
Step-by-step explanation:
(a)
2(5x - 3) = 24 ( divide both sides by 2 )
5x - 3 = 12 ( add 3 to both sides )
5x = 15 ( divide both sides by 5 )
x = 3
(b)
5(2x + 1) = 50 ( divide both sides by 5 )
2x + 1 = 10 ( subtract 1 from both sides )
2x = 9 ( divide both sides by 2 )
x = 
Hey. Let me help you on this one.
Let's break this problem down so it's easier for us to comprehend it.
There are 850 students in the school, and the amount of female students equals to the amount of male students + sixty additional females.
Amount of students in school = 850 students
Male students =

Female students =

Let's form an equation so we can work with what we have.

Subtract 60 from both sides.

Simplify

Divide both sides by 2.

Answer: There are 395 male students, and 455 female students.
Answer:
Line symmetry
Step-by-step explanation:
If you drew a straight line across the figure horizontally, you would see that both halves are symmetrical.
Answer:
The actual mass of the book is between 481 . 5 g and 418 . 5 g.
Step-by-step explanation:
The mass of the book on the scale = 450 g
The percentage error in the scale = 7%
So, the actual mass of the book is 450 g ± 7%
Now, 7 % of the mass 450 g = 
⇒ 7% of 450 g = 31.5 g
Now, the Actual mass of the book = 450 g ± 31.5 g
450 g + 31.5 g = 481 . 5 g
450 g - 31.5 g = 418 . 5 g
Hence the actual mass of the book is between 481 . 5 g and 418 . 5 g.
Answer:
A. x = 58°
B. x = 10m
C. a = 44°
All approximated to nearest whole number.
Step-by-step explanation:
All triangles given are right angled triangles. Therefore, we would apply the trigonometry functions to solve for each missing side and angle.
Recall: SOHCAHTOA
a. Adjacent = 4.8cm,
Hypotenuse = 9cm
Angle to find =x°
Thus, we would apply the following formula:
Cos θ = Adjacent/Hypotenuse
Cos θ = 4.8/9 = 0.5333
θ = Cos-¹(0.5333) = 57.77
x ≈ 58° (to nearest whole number)
b. Opposite side = x
Hypothenuse = 40 m
Included angle = 14°
We would use:
Sine θ = opposite/hypothenuse
Sin (14) = x/40
Multiply both sides by 40
40*sin(14) = x
40*0.2419 = x
x = 9.676 = 10 m (to nearest whole number)
c. Opposite = 87mm
Adjacent = 91mm
θ = a°
We would use:
Tan θ = opposite/adjacent
Tan θ = 87/91
Tan θ = 0.9560
θ = tan-¹(0.9560)
θ = a = 43.71
a ≈ 44° (to nearest whole number)
