You have to distribute the parentheses first. Since there is a negative sign in front of the parentheses, it counts as a negative 1. After you distribute you should get: -5+6x=20x+12, but that is not your final answer. After you add like terms: 17x=-17. Divide 17 on both sides: x=-1. X=-1 is your final answer.
The answer is -6/5
First convert the equation to y=mx+b form
you’ll get y=5/6x+27
then to find the line perpendicular to this equation, you have the flip the slope.
ending with -6/5
Mabye try making the triangle a right triangle and use SohCahToa (sin, cos, tan) to figure out each angle?
A. for the circumference it is C=pi(d)=pi(2r)=pi(10)= 31.4 ft
b. for the area it is A=pi(r)^2=pi(5)^2=pi(25)= 78.5 ft squared
c. since the are is 78.5 ft squared multiply by $4.50= $353.25 to floor the circle.
