Answer:

C) 5x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

When parentheses are preceded by a + sign, they may be immediately removed. Two additions and one subtraction are called for here: 2x + 5 + 3x - 7. This is 5x - 2.

(2x + 5) + (3x - 7)

2x + 5 + 3x - 7

2x + 3x - 7 + 5

<u>5x - 2</u>.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is classic right triangle trig. The height of the hill is 78.4 which serves as the side opposite the reference angle of 23 degrees. The side we are looking for is the hypotenuse of that triangle. The trig ratio that relates the side opposite a reference angle to the hypotenuse of the right triangle is the sin ratio. Setting it up using our values:

$sin(23)=\frac{78.4}{x}$ , where x is the unknown length of the hypotenuse. Solving for x:
