I'm horrible at this so I'm just guessing.
X is the variable and x means multiplication symbol.
X + (X x 3 - 1) + (X x 3 - 1) - 4) <span>≥ 45 is the answer I got.
The answer to that inequality would be
X </span><span>≥ 7 I think.</span>
I think second must b the answee
So the given series is "16, 06, 68, 88, __"
Count all the cyclical opening in each of these numbers. For example in 16, there is a one cyclical loop present in it(the one in 6), similarly in 06 it is two(one in zero and one in 6), going ahead, in 68 it is 3(one in 6 and two in 8).
From here on things become simple: hence, the cyclical figures in these equations written down becomes 1,2,3,4,_,3.
Let's now try solving the above sequence, going by the logical reasoning the only number that can fill in the gap should be 4.
Answer:
c. 35.34015106
Step-by-step explanation:
As with many problems of this nature, you only need to get close to be able to choose the correct answer. 22 minutes 45 seconds is just slightly less than 1/2 degree (30 minutes), so the tangent value will be just slightly less than tan(88.5°) ≈ 38. The appropriate choice is 35.34015106.
If you need confirmation, you can find tan(88°) ≈ 29, so you know the answer will be between 29 and 38.

The above has to do with strategies for choosing answers on multiple-choice problems. Below, we will work the problem.
The angle is (in degrees) ...
88 + 22/60 +45/3600 = 88 + (22·60 +45)/3600 = 88 +1365/3600
≈ 88.3791666... (repeating) . . . . degrees
A calculator tells you the tangent of that is ...
tan(88.3791666...°) ≈ 35.3401510614
Many calculators will round that to 10 digits, as in the answer above. Others can give a value correct to 32 digits. Spreadsheet values will often be correct to 15 or 16 digits.
