D 59. Simple use of order of operations were needed.
Answer:
x = 30m
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>GIVEN :-</u>
There are 2 right-angled triangles.
In the triangle on the right side ,
- Hypotenuse = 26m
- Base = 10m
In the triangle on the left side ,
<u>TO FIND :-</u>
- Length of the common perpendicular to both triangles.
- Length of the hypotenuse of the triangle on the left side.
<u>FACTS TO KNOW BEFORE SOLVING :-</u>
.
<u>SOLUTION :-</u>
In the triangle on the right side ,

⇒ Perpendicular of the triangle on right side = Perpendicular of the triangle on left side.
In the triangle on the left side ,

∴ x = 30m
Answer:
19 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
Issac shovels driveways to earn money. He can shovel 14 driveways in 8 hours. Earns $25.00 for each driveway. Issac is saving up to buy a new computer that costs $831.25. How many hours does Issac need to work to earn enough money to purchase the computer?
Step 1 find the number of driveways to shovel
25x = $831.25
x = $831.25/25
= 33.25 driveways
Step 2
He can shovel
14 driveways = 8 hours
33.25 driveways = x
Cross Multiply
14x = 8 × 33.25
x = 8 × 33.25/14
x = 19 hours
The answer is 20.87 when you divide it .
-59 = -(b − -55)
Pretend that there is a -1 in front of the bracket.
-59= -1(b--55)
Multiply the bracket by -1
-59= -1(b)-1(--55)
-59= -b-55
Move -55 to the other side. Sign changes from -55 to 55
-59+55= -b-55+55
-59+55= -b
-4= -b
Multiply by -1
-4(-1)= -b(-1)
4= b
Answer: b= 4
