Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the tangent of an angle is the length of the opposite side divided by the length of the adjacent side. Therefore, the tangent of angle x is 420/2000=0.21. Taking the arctangent of that to get the angle, you get about 12 degrees. Hope this helps!

Complete the following steps for this equation.
Troyanec [42]
1. <span>4x – 20 = 5y

so 5y = </span><span>4x – 20

divide both sides by 5

y = (4/5)x - 4


2. x-intercept is at y=0

so (4/5)x - 4 = 0

x = 5

so it is (5,0)


3. y-intercept is at x=0, y = 0 - 4 = -4

so it is (0,-4)

If 4x^2-100=0 the roots of the equation are
Marrrta [24]

Your equation:                   4x² - 100           =  0

Factor the left side:      (2x + 10) · (2x - 10) = 0

This equation is true if either factor is zero.

-- One factor:                     2x + 10 = 0
  
Divide each side by 2:            x + 5 = 0
Subtract 5 from each side:      x      = -5 .


-- The other factor:               2x - 10  =  0

Divide each side by 2:            x + 5 = 0
Add  5  to each side:              x      =  5 .
