10-12(1-x)=8(-12+6x)-14
i need this asap and i need to know how to do the steps so i get it better. and !

1. Simply the left hand side by first multiplying the -12 with the (1-x) to get -12+12x since negative×negative will give you positive. So after the simplification on the left hand side you will get the expression 10-12+12x. Which will give you -2+12x on the left hand side.

2. You do same on the right hand side of the expression 8(-12+6x) -14. So you multiply the 8 with the expression in the bracket ONLY (-12+6x) then afterwards,you add the -14 it to get -96+48x-14 =-110+48x .NOTE. ADDING TO NEGATIVE NUMBERS GIVES YOU A NEGATIVE ANSWER. so -96+(-14)=-110. So after simplification. You will also get the expression-110+48x on the right hand side .

3. Then combining the two sides of the equation, the whole expression becomes

-2+12x =  -110+48x. Then you group like terms by sending all number attached with a variable to the right hand side and non attached variable numbers to the left , given you

-2+110 = 48x-12x . NB .WHEN A POSITIVE NUMBER CROSSES THE EQUAL SIGN IT CHANGES TO NEGATIVE AND VICE VERSA.

4. -2+110 = 108 and 48x -12x =36x

So the final expression becomes 108= 36x

Then you divide both side by 36 ,thus 108÷36=36x÷36

Given you x= 3 as your final answer of the expression, since 108÷ 36= 3. And 36x÷36= x

answer: ask

step-by-step explanation:

answer:   28.56 feet (approx)

step-by-step explanation:

since, triangle abc has measure of angle c equal to 55 degrees, measure of angle abc equal to 90 degrees, and length of bc equal to 20 feet.

we have to find out the measurement of segment ab.

therefore, tan 55° =

but bc = 20 feet.

⇒ tan 55 ° =  

⇒ ab = 20 × tan 55 °

⇒ ab = 20 × 1.42814800674

⇒ ab = 28.5629601348   ≈ 28.56 feet
