3(x)-5=x+5
3x=-5+5+x
3x=x
0=x
because 3x=x is basically would make each part into 0 which would end up the same.
Answer:
a) we have the numbers 0, 2, 3, 5, 5. The mean and the median are both 3
b) we have the numbers 0, 0, 3, 5, 7. The mean and the median are both 3
In both cases the mean and the median are 3, but the mode differs. The mean and the median do not uniquely determine the mode.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
A construction worker may use trigonometry when building the roof of a house. They may have to calculate the right angle that hypotenuse must sit at so water doesn't build up on the roof and cause leaks.
(this may be more of an architect's job, as they are the ones that design the houses)
or
An air traffic controller may use trigonometry to find how long it will take an airplane to land/how far the airplane is from the ground while it is in the sky (hypotenuse), based on its height from the ground (opposite) and the distance away from the runway it is (adjacent). They can also calculate the angle of elevation of the airplane from the tower they work in.
The line of sight is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with short leg 400 m, 90 degree angle where the short leg meets the ground, an 83 degree angle at the top, and a 7 degree angle across from the right angle on the ground. Because this 7 degree angle is an alternate interior angle with the angle of depression, they are the same degree measure. Looking for the hypotenuse, we use the sin ratio: sin (7) = 400/x.
