Answer:

  angle: 44°

  complementary angle: 46°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°. We can use this relation and the one given to write equations for the angles of interest.

__

<h3>setup</h3>

Let 'a' and 'c' represent the angle and its complement, respectively.

  a = c -2 . . . . . an angle is 2° less than its complement

  a +c = 90 . . . . complementary angles total 90°

<h3>solution</h3>

Using the first equation to substitute for 'a' in the second, we have ...

  (c -2) +c = 90

  2c = 92 . . . . . . add 2, collect terms

  c = 46 . . . . . . . divide by 2

  a = 46 -2 = 44 . . . . find 'a' using the first equation

The angle is 44°; its complement is 46°.

Explanation:
we can rearrange the equation

p

cross-multiplying gives

p
V
=
8
←
divide both sides by p

⇒
V

I’ll bet you nobody’s not gonna answer this question
Arisa [49]

Answer:

Lol this is my first time seeing someone saying I bet no one will answer this. Ok coming back to the topic answers are :-

Initial value = -18

Initial value is the output value or the y variable. Looking in the table the y variable is -18 since x is 0.

Rate of change = 0.5

You have to use the formula of rate of change to find the answer. You can choose any pairs from the table and will give you the same answer. I pick the first pair and the last pair to find my rate of change.

(0, -18) and (36, 0)

x1, y1 x2, y2

Rate of change = y2 - y 1 / x2 - x1

Rate of change = 0 - (-18) / 36 - 0

Rate of change = 18 / 36

Rate of change = 0.5

Hope this helps, thank you :) !!
