Answer:

x = 3.4

Step-by-step explanation:

recall that for a right angle with an internal angle θ,

cos θ = adjacent length / hypotenuse

in our case,

θ = 55 deg

adjacent length = x units

hypotenuse = 6 units

substitute these into the formula above

cos θ = adjacent length / hypotenuse

cos 55 = x / 6    (multiply both sides by 6)

x = 6 cos 55 (use calculator)

x = 3.4415

x = 3.4  (rounded to nearest tenth)

A furniture company makes large and small chairs. A small chair takes 20 minutes of machine time and 60 minutes of labor to buil
bixtya [17]

Answer:

  30 small chairs and 24 large chairs

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x and y represent the numbers of small chairs and large chairs built in a day. Then the relations for using available time are ...

  20x +50y = 30×60

  60x +90y = 66×60

Removing common factors, these can be written in standard form as ...

  2x +5y = 180

  2x +3y = 132

Subtracting the second equation from the first gives ...

  2y = 48

  y = 24 . . . . . divide by 2

Using the first equation to find x, we have ...

  2x +5(24) = 180

  2x = 60 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 120

  x = 30 . . . . . . . . divide by 2

The company can build 30 small chairs and 24 large chairs in a day.

-5x-(8-x)=12 how do I solve this problem.<br> show a step by step please in a balance problem
Alex

Answer:

x = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

to evaluate for x in this this question -5x-(8-x)=12

the firsst step, you would open the bracket with - then evaluate for the value of x

solution

-5x-(8-x)=12

-5x -8 + x = 12

combine the like terms

-5x + x = 12 + 8

-4x = 20

divide both sides by the coefficient of x

-4x/-4 = 20/-4

x = -5
