S = b + 15
s = skirt
b = blouse
The skirt is $15 more than the blouse
Answer:
42
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be "x"
We translate the word equation to algebraic equation.
First,
subtract 6 from me, so we have:
x - 6
Now,
Multiply by 2, so we have:
2(x-6)
Now,
Subtract 40, then divide by 4:

Now, you get "8", so equate this to 8, we get:

We now solve using algebra:

The number is 42
Step-by-step explanation:
To write 5 as a fraction with a common denominator, multiply by 55 . Combine 5 and 55 . Combine the numerators over the common denominator. Simplify the numerator.
The answer would be 15 +20x. You have to combine like terms.
2+6+7+20x
8+7+20x
= 15+ 20x (answer)

Answer: 100 meters</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
If you draw out the diagram, then you'll find that a 45-45-90 triangle forms. The nice thing about this type of triangle is that the two legs are always the same length. The horizontal leg is 100 meters, so the vertical leg must also be 100 meters.
Side note: this type of triangle is an isosceles right triangle.
---------
You could use the tangent rule to get the same thing
tan(angle) = opposite/adjacent
tan(45) = 100/x
1 = 100/x
1*x = 100
x = 100
In this case, the opposite leg is the vertical leg since it is furthest from the angle of elevation.
