Answer: x= -1

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics when you have bases that are the same while multiplying you add the powers. In this case we do not have the same bases so we are going to make it look like 8 is 2. So we sort of simplify it. So we get 8 and put into like 2^4. We do not eliminate the power x that was already there though. So we will have 2^4x × 2^4-x. So like I said earlier we add the powers. Soo we will have

  1. 4x +4-x
  2. 4x-x=1
  3. 3x+4-4 =1-4
  4. 3x/3 = -3/3
  5. x= -1

Elena-2011 [213]
Assuming cos means cos(x); 

Combine all like terms: cos(x)(√2 - 12)= -1 
Isolate x: cos(x)= -1/(√2 - 12) 

cos(x)=0.0944 
x=cos⁻¹(0.0944) 
x= 84.57 degrees or (360-x=275.42 degrees) 

Hope I helped :)

∠E and ∠F are vertical angles with m∠E=8x+8 and m∠F=2x+38 .<br><br> What is the value of x?
Zigmanuir [339]
We know that ∠E = ∠F because of the vertical angle theorem.

Using substitution we get 8x + 8 = 2x + 38

Solve for x.

8x + 8 = 2x + 38
8x = 2x = 30 <-- Subtract 8 from each side
6x = 30 <-- Subtract 2x from each side
x = 5 <-- Divide both sides by 6

So, x is equal to 5.
