8-5(12x+8) simplify the following expression

1 answer:

8 0

Due to "order of operations" rules, you MUST do the multiplication -5(12x+8) first, eliminating the parentheses long the way:

8 - 60x - 40

Now combine the 8 and -40 and rewrite the entire answer in 2 (not 3) terms.

The perimeter of a scalene triangle is 14.5 cm. The longest side is twice that of the shortest side. Which equation can be used

prohojiy [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

If the longest side is 6.2 cm, and it is twice the length of the shortest, then we can write an equation as 2x=6.2, where x is the short side length.

Then, since a triangle has 3 sides, the medium side length is 14.5-6.2-x.

Hope that helped,

Howard is designing a chair swing ride. The swing ropes are 4 44 meters long, and in full swing they tilt in an angle of 2 3 ∘ 2

qaws [65]

Question:

Howard is designing a chair swing ride. The swing ropes are 4 meters long, and in full swing they tilt in an angle of 23°. Howard wants the chairs to be 3.5 meters above the ground in full swing. How tall should the pole of the swing ride be? Round your final answer to the nearest hundredth.

Answer:

7.18 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Length of rope, L = 4 m

Angle = 23°

Height of chair, H= 3.5 m

In this question, we are to asked to find the height of the pole of the swing ride.

Let X represent the height of the pole of the swing ride.

Let's first find the length of pole from the top of the swing ride. Thus, we have:

$cos \theta = \frac{h}{L}$

Substituting figures, we have:

$cos(23) = \frac{h}{4}$

Let's make h subject of the formula.

$h = 4cos(23) = 3.68$

The length of pole from the top of the swing ride is 3.68 meters

To find the height of the pole of the swing ride, we have:

X = h + H

X = 3.68 + 3.5

X = 7.18

Height of the pole of the swing ride is 7.18 meters
