  • Division Property of Equality
  • Addition Property of Equality
  • Subtract Property of Equality

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

0.4(12 - 3x) = 0.3(12x - 16)

<u>Step 2: Solve for </u><em><u>x</u></em>

  1. Distribute:                                4.8 - 1.2x = 3.6x - 4.8
  2. Add 1.2x on both sides:          4.8 = 4.8x - 4.8
  3. Add 4.8 on both sides:           9.6 = 4.8x
  4. Divide 4.8 on both sides:       2 = x
  5. Rewrite:                                   x = 2

A computer randomly puts a point inside the rectangle. What is the probability that the point lands in triangle T?
Serjik [45]

Answer:

87.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the entire rectangle is 8 by 6,

8x6=48 so the area is 48 units^2.

The area of the triangle is A=1/2bh

A=1/2(2)(6)

A=1(6)

A=6 units^2

6/48=0.125

0.125=12.5%

You need to find the percent it will not land in the triangle, so subtract 12.5 from 100.

100-12.5=87.5

There is an 87.5% chance it will not land in the triangle

Find a cofunction with the same value as the given expression. csc 52°
sweet-ann [11.9K]
To find a cofunction with the same value as the expression csc 52*, you would use the formula like this.  csc (x) = sec (90-x). So if you use csc(52) that equals sec(90-52). This in turn, equals sec(38). So the answer is B.
