Let A and B be the two complementary angles.

A = smaller angle = 2x

B = larger angle = 13x

x = some unknown number

Note how the ratio A:B turns into 2x:13x which simplifies to 2:13

A+B = 90 ... because the angles are complementary

2x+13x = 90 ... substitution

15x = 90

x = 90/15

x = 6

A = 2*x = 2*6 = 12 degrees

B = 13*x = 13*6 = 78 degrees

The two angles are 12 degrees and 78 degrees.

Check:

A/B = 12/78 = (2*6)/(13*6) = 2/13, so A:B = 2:13

A+B = 12+78 = 90

Rotation 180 counterclockwise around the origin of the point (-3,-7)
yaroslaw [1]

Answer: (3 , 7)

Step-by-step explanation: When rotating a point 180 degrees counterclockwise about the origin our point A(x,y) becomes A'(-x,-y). So all we do is make both x and y negative. Since x and y are already negative, they become positive due to the double negative rule.

Suppose you hit a fly ball with an initial upward velocity of 20 feet per second. Which of the following equations would be a re
baherus [9]
A=g≈-32

v=⌠a dt  since a≈-32

v=-32t+C, where C is the initial velocity, which we are told is 20 ft/s

v=-32t+20

h=⌠v dt

h=-32t^2/2+20t+C, where C is the initial height, so what is a reasonable initial height?  How about 3 ft since we are swinging a bat around maybe our waist level... maybe :P

h=-16t^2+20t+3

Your choices may have made a different assumption about the initial height of course but you did not show your choices, but certainly it will be:

h(t)=-16t^2+20t+hi, where hi is the initial height in feet.

This of course ignores air resistance and flight dynamics of a spinning ball with seams, which will make a significant difference in real life :)
