Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90º

So, if we have two complementary angles 7x and 11x we know that their sum is 90

We are going to write the equation and solve for x:

7x+11x=90\\18x=90\\x=90/18\\x= 5

Therefore, x would be 5. And the angles would be 7(5) = 35º and 11(5) = 55º

As you know that sum of complementary angles equal 90°

so,

7x + 11x = 90
18x = 90
x = 90/18
x =5


so,
option A is the correct one.

Answer:

  B.  1.2×10^-3 mm

Step-by-step explanation:

What constitutes an "appropriate" unit depends on the use of the number. Since we're not told of any particular use, we might choose the smallest of the available units: mm.

  1.2×10^-3 mm

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The most appropriate unit would be the one that eliminates the power-of-ten multiplier:

  = 1.2 µm

(1 point) Rework problem 15 in section 2 of Chapter 5 of your textbook about the growing suburb and the declining city using the
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

16 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

320000 + 5000x

The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:

624000 - 14000x

The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:

320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x

14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000

19000x = 304000

x = 304000 / 19000

x = 16

In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal

What is the justification for each step in the solution of the equation?
podryga [215]

Here are the following justifications:

Given: -2 (x-1) +12=4x-6


Distribute property = -2x+2+12=4x-6


Combine like terms= -2x+14=4x-6

 

Transpose = -2x = 4x – 20

 

Addition or Subtraction Property of Equality = -6x = -20

 

Division property of equality = x = 20/6

 

Simplify = x = 10/3

Complete the similarity statement for the two triangles shown. Enter your answer in the box. △XBR∼△ Two similar triangles B R X
Andreyy89

Answer:  

Here, BRX and NJY are two triangles in which,

BR = 30 cm, RX = 40 cm, BX = 60 cm, NJ = 15 cm, JY = 20 cm and NY = 30 cm,

Also, m∠B = m∠N, m∠R = m∠J and m∠X = m∠Y,

By the property of congruence,

\angle B \cong \angle N, \angle R \cong \angle J and \angle X \cong \angle Y

Thus, By AAA similarity postulate,

\triangle BRX\sim \triangle NJY

Hence, proved.

Jack has a 8-ft long board. he cut off 1/6 of it how long is the remaining piece in feet and inches
mars1129 [50]
First, let's find out the equivalent amount of one-sixth of the total length of 8 ft.

Length of cut = 8(1/6) = 4/3 ft

So, the remaining length would be:
Remaining length = 8 ft - 4/3 ft = 20/3 ft or that's 6 and 2/3 ft.

Since there are 12 inches in 1 ft:
2/3 ft * 12 in/ft = 8 inches

Thus, the remaining length is 6 ft and 8 inches.
