complimentary angles = 90

complement = c

angle = x

x = 5(c - x) - 6

x = 5(90 - x) - 6

x = 450 - 5x - 6

x (+5x) = -5x (+5x) + 444

6x = 444

6x/6 = 444/6

x = 74

plug back into equation

90 - 74 = 16

16 is your answer

hope this helps

Complimentary angles, when added, = 90 degrees
so if one angle is x, then its compliment is 90 - x

x = 5(90 - x) - 6
x = 450 - 5x - 6
x + 5x = 450 - 6
6x = 444
x = 444/6
x = 74

and its compliment is : 90 - x.....90 - 74 = 16 <==

Max was on vacation twice as long as Jared and half as longas Wesley. The boys were on vacation a total of 3 weeks. How many day
lord [1]
Make an equation.
Also, convert 3 weeks into days ⇒ 3 · 7 = 21 days.

x + 2x + 4x = 21

x is Jared.
2x is Max (because half of 4 is 2).
4x is Wesley.

Now solve the equation.

7x = 21
x = 3

Jared = x
Max = 2x
Wesley = 4x

Jared = 3 days
Max = 2(3) = 6 days
Wesley = 4(3) = 12 days

The table shows the relationship between the number of Calories Lucie burns while jumping rope and the number of minutes she jum
iragen [17]

Answer:

The amount of calories Lucie will burn by jumping for 1 minute is 8 calories

Step-by-step explanation:

The given data values are;

Minutes {}                  Calories Burned

40                {}            320

80        {}                    640

120 {}                          960

160 {}                          1280

The value of calories burnt and the number of minutes of jump robe are seen to be directly proportional, such that we have;

40 minutes of jump rope will yield 320 calories burnt

Therefore we have;

1 minute of jump rope will yield 320/40 = 8 calories burnt

The amount of calories Lucie will burn by jumping for 1 minute = 8 calories.
