Let the measure of the unknown angle is x °
Supplementary angles sum up to 180°. So the supplementary angle of x° will be (180 - x)°

According to the given data, measure of x is 40° less than 3 times the measure of its supplementary angle (180 - x). So we can set up the equation for this scenario as:

x = 3(180 - x ) - 40 \\  \\ 
x = 540 - 3x - 40 \\  \\ 
x + 3x = 500 \\  \\ 
4x = 500 \\  \\ 
x = 125

So the degree measure of the required angle is 125°.

Angle: x=?
Supplementary angle: y=180°-x
<span>
The degree measure of an angle (x) is 40° less than 3 times the degree measure of its supplementary angle (y):
</span>x=3y-40°

Replacing y by 180°-x
x=3(180°-x)-40°
x=540°-3x-40°
x=500°-3x

Solving for x:
x+3x=500°-3x+3x
4x=500°
4x/4=500°/4
x=125°

Answer: The degree measure of the angle is 125°

-0.75p-2=0.25 <br><br> Help me please
Art [367]

First you change the number that is not with "p" and it changes with the opposite sign

-0.75p = 0.25 + 2

-0.75p = 2.25

then as -0.75 and p are multiplying, you pass -0.75 as dividing

p = 2.25/-0.75

p = 3

HELP PLZ!!!!!!! Is the following graph a function?
Stels [109]
This graph does not represent a function because the x-intercepts repeat themselves several times. In order for a graph or group of coordinates to be a function, there must be only one of a particular x-coordinate.
