Answer:
19. x = 65
20. x = 12
21. x = 35, y = 85
Step-by-step explanation:
19. 2x -10 = 120
2x (-10 + 10) = (120 +10)
2x/2 = 130/2
x = 65
20. 2x + 4x + 108 = 180
6x + (108 - 108) = (180 - 108)
6x/6 = 72/6
x = 12
21. 2x + 25 = 3x - 10
2x + (25 - 25) = 3x (- 10 - 25)
(2x - 3x) = (3x - 3x) - 35
-x/-1 = -35/-1
x = 35
3x - 10 + y = 180
3(35) - 10 + y = 180
105 - 10 + y = 180
(95 - 95) + y = (180 - 95)
y = 85
1 cm 3 cm
--------- = ---------
3 in x inches
The ratio has to stay in the same order cm on top, inches on the bottom
Choice C
Answer:
7 to the power of negative 8
7ft = 84in 84 ÷ 15 = 5.6 pieces he can cut from each board. Since .6 is not a whole piece measuring 15 inches long, he can only cut 5 pieces from each board.
So, 5 x 2 = 10
He would be able to cut 10 pieces measuring 15 inches long.
Hope this helps :)
We use the trigonometric function for this case. An escalator is an inclined path. We form a right triangle since we have given the value of the height. The height from the first floor to second floor is called the adjacent while the travelled distance of the people is called the hypothenuse. We use cosine function because we are given in terms of adjacent and hypothenuse. The ratio of cosine function is
cos x = a/h
where x is the angle
Solving for h,
h = a/(cos x) = 21/(cos 30) = 24.25 ft
