Answer: x = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 11 - 2x = 17
Combine like terms
3x + 11 = 17
Subtract 11 from each side
3x = 6
Divide each side by 3
x = 2
Answer:
the area = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
a= side length x side length
a = 5 x 5
a = 25
This can be solved using trigonometric functions. The distance x serves as one leg of a triangle, and makes an angle q with the hypotenuse. The distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground make up the other leg of the triangle. So solving this:
tan q = y / x
Where: y = distance from the tip of the rocket to the ground
Therefore, y = x tan q
Among the choices, the correct answer is C.
