Call the measure of one angle n. The other angle, which is seventeen times as big as n, measures 17n.


Since the angles are supplementary, their measures must add to 180°. Set up an equation and solve for n.


n

+  

17

n

=  180°


18

n

=  180°


18

n

÷  18

=  

180°  ÷  18


n

=  10°



The first angle measures 10°. Now plug in n = 10° to find the measure of the other angle, 17n.


17

n

=  

17  ×  10°


=  170°



So, the two angles measure 10° and 170°.

Got it

Supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.

n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170

so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.

For each system of equations, drag the true statement about its solution set to the box under the system?
natta225 [31]

Answer:

y = 4x + 2

y = 2(2x - 1)

Zero solutions.

4x + 2 can never be equal to 4x - 2

y = 3x - 4

y = 2x + 2

One solution

3x - 4 = 2x + 2 has one solution

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets explain how to solve the problem

- The system of equation has zero number of solution if the coefficients

 of x and y are the same and the numerical terms are different

- The system of equation has infinity many solutions if the

   coefficients of x and y are the same and the numerical terms

   are the same

- The system of equation has one solution if at least one of the

  coefficient of x and y are different

* Lets solve the problem

∵ y = 4x + 2 ⇒ (1)

∵ y = 2(2x - 1) ⇒ (2)

- Lets simplify equation (2) by multiplying the bracket by 2

∴ y = 4x - 2

- The two equations have same coefficient of y and x and different

  numerical terms

∴ They have zero equation

y = 4x + 2

y = 2(2x - 1)

Zero solutions.

4x + 2 can never be equal to 4x - 2

∵ y = 3x - 4 ⇒ (1)

∵ y = 2x + 2 ⇒ (2)

- The coefficients of x and y are different, then there is one solution

- Equate equations (1) and (2)

∴ 3x - 4 = 2x + 2

- Subtract 2x from both sides

∴ x - 4 = 2

- Add 4 to both sides

∴ x = 6

- Substitute the value of x in equation (1) or (2) to find y

∴ y = 2(6) + 2

∴ y = 12 + 2 = 14

∴ y = 14

∴ The solution is (6 , 14)

y = 3x - 4

y = 2x + 2

One solution

3x - 4 = 2x + 2 has one solution

Write an expression that evaluates to true if the int associated with number_of_prizes is divisible (with no remainder) by the i
hodyreva [135]

We need to find the expression for " number_of_prizes is divisible number_of_participants". Also there should not remain any remainder left. On in order words, we can say the reaminder we get after division is 0.

Let us assume number of Prizes are = p and

Number of participants = n.

If we divide number of Prizes by number of participants and there will be not remainder then there would be some quotient remaining and that quotent would be a whole number.

Let us assume that quotent is taken by q.

So, we can setup an expression now.

Let us rephrase the statement .

" Number of Prizes ÷ Number of participants  = quotient".

p ÷ n = q.

In fraction form we can write

p/n =q   ; n ≠ 0.
