Since both angle are congruent (equal/same), which means that both side is equal to 40 degrees, we will put the equation like this:

5x - 5 = 40

Now we’ll solve for x:

5x - 5 = 40
+ 5 + 5 (Add 5 to both sides)

5x = 45
—- —— (Five both side by 5)
5 5

x = 9

Now we left with x, so x is equal to 9.

First you do the top
8n+3n-7=8*2+3*2-7=16+6-7= 22-7=15
Then you found out the bottom
6*2n-3(n-1)=6*2*2-3(2-1)=6*2*2-3*1=6*4-3*1=24-3*1=24-3=21
15/21 is your answer.
Hope this helps! :)

A spotlight on the ground shines on a wall 12 m away. If a man 2 m tall walks from the spotlight toward the building at a speed

Stells [14]

Draw a right angled triangle ABC, where BC is the base, and BC = 12 m and C represents spot light on the ground and B is foot of the wall 

Draw a perpendicular DE from a point D on hypotenuse, AC to a point E on BC 

DE represents walking man and DE = 2 m 

Now AB represents height of shadow, let AB = y 

let EC = x 

from similar triangles, ABC and DEC 

AB/DE = BC/EC 

y/2 = 12/x 

y = 24/x 

differentiating with respect to t 

dy/dt = - (24/x^2) dx/dt 

substitute x = (12 - 4) = 8 and dx/dt = 1.9 m/s 

dy/dt = - (24 / 64)(1.9) 

= -0.7125 

length of shadow is decreasing at the rate of 0.7125 m /s

225 I believe because if he has $90 that is 2/5 so add another 90 whitch is 2/5 as well and divide 90 by 2 and to get 45 which all adds up to 225
