Answer:

x = 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

3(x – 1) – 2(2x + 1) = 8(x – 1)

Distribute

3x-3 -4x-2 = 8x-8

Combine like terms

-x-5 = 8x-8

Add x to each side

-x+x-5 =8x+x -8

-5 = 9x-8

Add 8 to each side

-5+8 = 9x-8+8

3 = 9x

Divide by 9

3/9 =9x/9

1/3 =x

What is the measure of an anglethat is supplementary to an angle of 37°? A. 127° B. 53° C. 143° D. 323°​
KengaRu [80]

<u>Answer:</u>

143°

option c is correct!

<u>Explanation:</u>

Given:

Two angles are supplementary:

One angle = 37°

We know if two angles are supplementary their sum is equal to 180°.

Let another angle be x°

= > 37° + x° = 180

= > x° = 143°

Therefore another angle is 143°.

Matthew bought 12 roses for his mother. Exactly 1 of the roses were white. How many of the roses were white?
insens350 [35]
<h3>hello!</h3>

What is \sf{\displaystyle\frac{1}{4}} of 12?

In order to find it, we should divide 12 by 4:-

3

Now, solve our word problem:-

Matthew bought 12 roses. \sf{\displaystyle\frac{1}{4} } of these roses were white.

And we already know how to solve this problem :)

Hence,

\bigstar{\boxed{\pmb{3~of~the~roses~were~white}}}

<h3>note:-</h3>

Hope everything is clear; if you need any clarification/explanation, kindly let me know, and I will comment and/or edit my answer :)

Help due really soon​
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

B.) y - 6 = -8/5(x + 2)

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember in order to find the slope intercept form on 2 points, you need these equations: \frac{x_2 -x_1}{y_2 -y_1} and y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

To find the slope, you will need to use the first equation. In this case the equation will look like this: \frac{(-2)-6}{3-(-2)}=-\frac{8}{5}

Then use the second equation, plug in the numbers, and you will get B as your answer

Find (if possible) the complement and the supplement of each angle. (if not possible, enter impossible.) (a) π 10 complement rad
blagie [28]

In this question, we have to find the complement and supplement of the given angles .

Complementary angles are those angles whose sum is 90 degree and supplementary angles are those angles whose sum is 180 degree.

So to find the complement and supplement angles, we need to subtract the given angles from pi/2 and pi respectively .

a.

\frac{ \pi}{10}&#10;\\&#10;complement  \ angle = \frac{ \pi}{2} - \frac{ \pi}{10}     \\                             = \frac{4 \pi}{10} = \frac{ 2 \pi}{5}&#10;\\&#10;Supplement  \ angle = \pi - \frac{ \pi}{10} = \frac{9 \pi}{10}

b.

\frac{9 \pi}{10}&#10;\\&#10;Complement \ angle = \frac{ \pi}{2} - \frac{9 \pi}{10} = \frac{-4 \pi}{10} = -\frac{2 \pi}{5}&#10;\\&#10;Supplement \ angle = \pi - \frac{9 \pi}{10} = \frac{ \pi}{10}
