Answer:

$x=2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given an equation $3(2x+6)-4x=2(5x-2)+6$ . We are supposed to solve our given equation step by step.

Step 1: Use the distributive property.

$3\cdot 2x+3\cdot 6-4x=2\cdot 5x-2\cdot 2+6$

$6x+18-4x=10x-4+6$

Step 2: Combine like terms.

$6x-4x+18=10x-4+6$

$2x+18=10x+2$

Step 3: Use subtraction property of equality:

$2x-2x+18-2=10x-2x+2-2$

$16=8x$

Step 4: Use the division property of equality:

$\frac{16}{8}=\frac{8x}{8}$

$2=x$

Therefore, the solution of our given equation is $x=2$ .

sukhopar [10]

Let the total candy bar be represented by x.

Amount of chocolate Kaitlyn gave to Arianna = $\frac{1}{2}x$

Amount of chocolate Arianna gave Cameron

= $\frac{1}{3}$ rd <span>of the candy she got from Kaitlyn to Cameron

= </span> $\frac{1}{3}$ × $\frac{1}{2}x$

= $\frac{1}{3}* \frac{1}{2} x = \frac{1}{6} x$

Hence, Cameron got $\frac{1}{6}$ th of the original chocolate.

170

<u>Options</u>:

A) All butterfly populations are steadily decreasing.

B)All butterfly populations were larger than usual in 2010.

C)The Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than the others.

D)The Meadow Fritillary is equally common as the Variegated Fritillary

Answer:

<u>C</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

Looking through the above count data by Louden County Wildlife Conservancy from 2009 to 2011 we notice the Eastern- Trailed Blue butterfly has a higher count, which implies that the Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than the other butterflies.

Therefore, we could infer from the samples, that the Eastern-Tailed Blue butterfly is more common than others from the records of the past 3 three years.

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue. The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 16o when staring at the top of the sta

NemiM [27]

Answer:

The height of the statue is 21.4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given

A person is standing 50 ft from a statue

The person looks up at an angle of elevation of 16 degree when staring at the top of the statue

hen the person looks down at an angle of depression of 8 degree when staring at the base of the statue

Firstly, we will draw diagram

In triangle ABF:

FC=50

we can use trig formula

$tan(16)=\frac{y}{50}$

$y=50tan(16)$

$y=14.33727ft$

now, we can find x

In triangle DEF:

we can use trig formula

$tan(8)=\frac{x}{50}$

$x=50tan(8)$

$x=7.0270ft$

we can see that

height of statue =x+y

so, the height of statue is

$=14.33727+7.0270$

$=21.4ft$
