Your answer would be x=-10.5
First distribute -2/3 to 3x and -9
-2x+6=15
Then subtract 6 from both sides
-2x=9
Divide both sides by -2
x=-4.5
Answer: 4/2
Step-by-step explanation: Rise over run. From point S to R it goes up 4 and over 2.
Tan 40 = h / 20 where h = height of the pole.
h = 20 tan 40 = 16.78 feet
Answer:
20 batches
Step-by-step explanation:
Cups of sugar in a bag = 15
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie = 3/4 cup
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 3/4 : 1
what's the greatest number of batches of cookies that can be made with the bag of sugar
Let
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar
Cups of sugar per batch of cookie : batch of cookies = 15 : x
Equate the ratios
3/4 : 1 = 15 : x
3/4 ÷ 1 = 15/x
3/4 × 1/1 = 15/x
3/4 = 15/x
Cross product
3 * x = 4 * 15
3x = 60
x = 60/3
x = 20
x = batches of cookies made with a bag of sugar = 20 batches
The answer is 145 divided by tan 65 degrees.
Since the equation for tangent is opposite/adjacent, you can just plug the numbers in.
tan(65)=145/x (x being the height that you are trying to find)
tan(65) * x = 145
Then divide tan(65) to isolate the x and you get:
145/tan(65)
Hope this helps!
