Complementary angles have measures (4x)° and (5x−27)°. Find the measure of the larger angle.

Answer:

So the measure of the larger angle is

4x = 4×13 = 52 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have measures (4x) degrees and (5x−27) degrees.

Complementary angles are angles that add up to give 90 degrees. They are acute angles because either of the complementary angles is less than 90 degrees.

From the question, the measures of the two complementary angles are measures (4x) degrees and (5x−27

Sum of (4x) degrees and (5x−27) is equal to 90 degrees.

Therefore

4x + 5x-27= 90

4x +5x = 90+27

9x = 117

x = 117/9

x = 13

So the measure of the larger angle is

4x = 4×13 = 52 degrees

the measure of the smaller angle is

5x-27 = 5×13 -27 = 38 degrees

balandron [24]

Answer:

4

Step-by-step explanation:

If sandwiches are 6 dollars each, then chips are 3 dollars, she only bought 5 sandwiches for 6 each for 30 dollars(5*6=30).So, she has 12 dollars left to spend since she spent 42 dollars. And 4 *3=12so she only bought 4 bags of chips.

Jane builds a ramp made of a triangular prism and a rectangular prism. What is the volume
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

Correct option: third one ->  11.5 m3

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of the ramp, first we need to find the volume of the rectangular prism and the volume of the triangular prism:

V_rectangular = 4m * 2m * 1m = 8 m3

V_triangular = (2m * 3.5m * 1m) / 2 = 3.5 m3

Now, to find the volume of the ramp, we just need to sum both volumes:

V_total = V_rectangular + V_triangular = 8 + 3.5 = 11.5 m3

Correct option: third one.

The function f is continuous son the interval [2, 10] with some of its values given in the table below. Use a right Riemann Sum
Marta_Voda [28]

The 4 subintervals are given: [2, 4], [4, 7], [7, 9], and [9, 10].

Each subinterval has length: 4 - 2 = 2, 7 - 4 = 3, 9 - 7 = 2, and 10 - 9 = 1.

Over each subinterval, we take the value of the function at the right endpoint: 3, 8, 15, and 18.

Then the integral is approximately

\displaystyle\int_2^{10}f(x)\,\mathrm dx\approx3\cdot2+8\cdot3+15\cdot2+18\cdot1=78

so 78.0 is the correct answer.

A professor uses a video camera to record the motion of an object falling from a height of 250 meters. The function f(x) = –5x2
Romashka [77]

Answer:

The answer is approximately 5.09 seconds.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation is:

f(x) = -5x^2 + 250

To find the elapsed time, x, set the equation equal to 120 and solve for x:

-5x^2 + 250 = 120

-5x^2 = -130

x^2 = -130/-5 = 26

x = Sqrt(26) = 5.09 seconds.

a local charity held a crafts fair selling donated,handmade items. Total proceeds from the sale were $1,875. A total of 95 items
Lana71 [14]
15x+25y=1875
Let
y=95-x
15x+25 (95-x)=1875
Solve for x
15x+2375-25x=1875
15x-25x=1875-2375
-10x=-500
X=500/10
X=50 the number of $15 items

Y=95-50=45 the number of $25 items
