X=7 is a solution for the equation 5x-8=27 true or false

True

Explanation:

Simplifying

5x + -8 = 27

Reorder the terms:

-8 + 5x = 27

Solving

-8 + 5x = 27

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '8' to each side of the equation.

-8 + 8 + 5x = 27 + 8

Combine like terms: -8 + 8 = 0

0 + 5x = 27 + 8

5x = 27 + 8

Combine like terms: 27 + 8 = 35

5x = 35

Divide each side by '5'.

x = 7

Simplifying

x = 7

true

Step-by-step explanation:

If you plug in x=7 into the equation then you get 27. So the answer would be true.

5(7)-8=27

27=27 ✔️

hope this !

step-by-step explanation:

d = distance between moon and sun, which in this problem is the hypotenuse of a right triangle.  

the distance y is the side opposite to angle x in the right triangle.   use the definition of the sine function from basic trigonometry.

sin(x) = y/d ⇒

d = y/sin(x)
