Answer:

53.1°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the wangle of elevation from B to C

Reference angle = x

Opposite side to x = 16 - 4 = 12

Adjacent = 9

Apply trigonometric ratio to find x.

Thus:

tan(x) = \frac{12}{9}

x = tan^{-1}(frac{12}{9})

x= 53.1 (nearest tenth)

Angle of elevation from B to C = 53.1°

5x + 7 = 2x - 8 can anyone say how to solve please ​
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

x = - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

5x + 7 = 2x - 8 ( subtract 2x from both sides )

3x + 7 = - 8 ( subtract 7 from both sides )

3x = - 15 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = - 5
