Answer:

x = -24

Step-by-step explanation:

First, distribute 2 to all terms within the parenthesis:

2(x + 11) =

2 * x = 2x

2 * 11 = 22

2x + 22 = -26

Isolate the variable, x. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. PEMDAS is the order of operations, and stands for:

Parenthesis

Exponents (& Roots)

Multiplications

Divisions

Additions

Subtractions

First, subtract 22 from both sides of the equation:

2x + 22 (-22) = -26 (-22)

2x = -26 - 22

2x = -48

Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(2x)/2 = (-48)/2

x = -48/2

x = -24

x = -24 is your answer.

Is (5, 10), (-8, 3), (-1, 7), (-5, 10) A Function ?

ankoles [38]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the inputs {5, -8, -1, -5} are all different. So we can immediately conclude that this is a function.

If the inputs were {5, -8, -1, 5}, this would not be a function, as the same input value (5) would result in two different outputs.

Find x.<br><br> See attached picture.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

B. 22

Step-by-step explanation:

We know tan60=

$\sqrt{3}$

Let common side be x

Tan = opp/adj= sqrt(3)

$\frac{11 \sqrt{6} }{x} = \sqrt{3}$

Transposing we get :

$\frac{11 \sqrt{6} }{ \sqrt{3}} = x = 11 \sqrt{2}$

Now, we know that since the other triangle is a 45-45-90 triangle, we can state that the side adjacent to the given angle = 11 sqrt(2) as the two sides are equal due to the triangle being an isoceles triangle.

Solve for x by using Pythagorean theorem:

$\sqrt((11 \sqrt{2}^{2} + (11 \sqrt{2} )^{2} ) = x$

$= > \sqrt{2(11 \times 11 \times \sqrt{2} \times \sqrt{2}) } = x$

$= > \sqrt{484} = x = 22$

Hence answer is B. 22

Use the fact that the length of an arc intercepted by an angle is proportional to the radius to find the area of the sector give

Hunter-Best [27]

$\bf \textit{area of a sector of a circle}\\\\
A=\cfrac{\theta r^2}{2}~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
\theta =angle~in\\
\qquad radians\\
------\\
r=3\\
\theta =\frac{\pi }{4}
\end{cases}\implies A=\cfrac{\frac{\pi }{4}\cdot 3^2}{2}\implies A=\cfrac{\frac{9\pi }{4}}{2}
\\\\\\
A=\cfrac{9\pi }{4}\cdot \cfrac{1}{2}\implies A=\cfrac{9\pi }{8}$

16 more than eight of a certain number is twenty four more than 6 times of thatnumber.

Nataly_w [17]

We can write this in algebraic terms as:
16+8x = 24+6x
so
2x = 8
x = 4
The number is 4.
