Answer:

x = 15

Step-by-step explanation:

As given, the equation 40 = 25 + x

As on the R.H.S of the equation, there is one constant and a variable x

As to isolate the variable we have to subtract the same constant so that that constant gives 0.

As we have the constant value 25

So, subtract 25 from both side of the equation, we get

40 - 25 = 25 + x - 25

⇒15 = x

∴ we get

x = 15

Space Shuttle Marion is observing the launch of a space

Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Using the slope concept, it is found that the shuttle traveled 3.2 miles while Marion was watching.

<h3>What is a slope?</h3>

The slope is given by the <u>vertical change divided by the horizontal change</u>, and it's also the tangent of the angle of depression.

Initially, the angle of elevation is of 16º, with an elevation of 1 mi, hence:

$\tan{16^\circ} = \frac{1}{x_1}$

$x_1 = \frac{1}{\tan{16^\circ}}$

$x_1 = 3.5$

Then, at the end, the angle will be of 74º, with the elevation remaining constant, hence:

$\tan{74^\circ} = \frac{1}{x_2}$

$x_2 = \frac{1}{\tan{74^\circ}}$

$x_2 = 0.3$

The distance is:

$d = x_1 - x_2 = 3.5 - 0.3 = 3.2$

The shuttle traveled 3.2 miles while Marion was watching.

A towel set consisting of a towel and 6 napkins cost rupees 200 if the cost of each napkin is rupees 95 less than the cost of th

ollegr [7]

Answer:

The towel costs 110 rupees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n be napkins, and t be towels. Then:

6n+t=200

and

n=t-95

So:

6(t-95)+t=200

7t-570=200

7t=770

t=110....................
