Answer:

Elise's number is 112/3.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can form the equation: \left(x-17\right)\cdot -3=-61

Solution: \frac{\left(x-17\right)\left(-3\right)}{-3}=\frac{-61}{-3}

x-17=\frac{61}{3}

x-17+17=\frac{61}{3}+17

x=112/3

Given that y= 12 cm and θ= 24 °, work out x rounded to 1 DP.<br><br> (not drawn to scale.)
padilas [110]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf x = 5.3}

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Given:</u></h3>

y = 12 cm

θ = 24°

Using trigonometric ratio, tan.

\displaystyle \boxed{tan \theta = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} }\\\\tan \ 24 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\0.445 = \frac{x}{12} \\\\Multiply \ 12 \ to \ both \ sides\\\\0.445 \times 12 = x\\\\5.3 = x\\\\x = 5.3\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}

4a-b<br> Evaluate the expression when a=5 and b=-7
stepladder [879]

Answer:

27

Step-by-step explanation:

So first we need to plug in 5 as the variable a and -7 as the variable b

4(5)-(-7)

Next we multiply the 4 and the 5 together to get 20

4(5) = 20   or    4 x 5 = 20

20-(-7)

Now we subtract negative 7 from 20

20-(-7) = 27

This can also be written as 20 plus 7 as a mathematical rule states: two negatives make a positive. So:

20-(-7) = 20 + 7

Both of these are equivalent in every sense of the word and give us our final answer of 27

When you are finding a percent of something, you need to move the decimal over to the left twice in the percentage. Like this:

20% = .20

Then, just multiply that by the number you are trying to find the percent of.
