Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
So 9 more than 3 times a number, would be:
9+(3x)=-6
then you would solve
subtract 9 from 9 and 9 from -6
you get 3x=-15
divide by 3 on both sides
x=-5
your welcome!!!! :)
Hello,
Adding the 2 equations,
x+y+x-y=k+k ==>2x=2k==>x=k
if x=k, y=k-k=0
solution is (k,0)
First I would change the descriptions of the numbers into expressions.
first number is n
second number is n + 6
third number is 4n (4 x n)
Then you would insert these expressions into an equation and isolate n.
n + n + 6 + 4n = 144
n + n + 4n = 144 - 6
6n = 138
n = 138/6
n = 23
Lastly, you would plug in this value into all of the expressions.
first number is 23
second number is 23 + 6 = 29
third number is 4(23) = 92
Therefore, the numbers are 23, 29, and 92.
Answer:
23.6 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Sketch a right triangle representing this situation. The length of the hypotenuse is 26 ft and the angle of elevation from ground to top of ladder is 65°. The "opposite side" is the reach of the ladder, which we'll call x.
Then:
opp
- sin 65° = ----------
- 26 ft
or (26 ft)(sin 65°) = opp side = height off the ground of top of ladder.
Evaluating this, we get:
(26 ft)(0.906) = 23.56 ft, or, rounded off, 23.6 ft
The ladder reaches 23.6 ft up the side of the building.
