Call the measure of one angle n. The other angle, which is seventeen times as big as n, measures 17n.


Since the angles are supplementary, their measures must add to 180°. Set up an equation and solve for n.


n

+  

17

n

=  180°


18

n

=  180°


18

n

÷  18

=  

180°  ÷  18


n

=  10°



The first angle measures 10°. Now plug in n = 10° to find the measure of the other angle, 17n.


17

n

=  

17  ×  10°


=  170°



So, the two angles measure 10° and 170°.

Got it

Supplementary angles are two angles that when add equal 180 degrees.
The supplement of an angle is 180 - n.

n = 17(180 - n)
n = 3060 - 17n
n + 17n = 3060
18n = 3060
n = 3060/18
n = 170

so the unknown angle (n) = 170 degrees and its supplement = (180 - 170 = 10)......= 10 degrees.

======================================

Explanation:

7+6 = 13. Divide this over 5 to get 13/5 = 2 remainder 3. The quotient 2 is something we don't care about. <u>We only worry about the remainder</u>. Therefore 7+6 = 3 (mod 5)

-------------

2+1 = 3 (mod 5) for similar reasoning as above. 3/5 = 0 remainder 3.

-------------

20 = 9 (mod 11) since 20/11 = 1 remainder 9. Imagine you had 20 cookies and 11 friends. Each friend would get 1 whole cookie (quotient) and there could be 9 left over (remainder).

-------------

35/11 = 3 remainder 2

Or you could use repeated subtraction like so to find the remainder

35-11 = 24

24-11 = 13

13-11 = 2

The last result (2) is smaller than 11, so we stop here and this is the remainder.

Therefore, 35 = 2 (mod 11)

--------------

Here's another way to think of it. Consider you have $35 in your pocket. Let's say a store is selling trinkets for $11 each. We can pose these key questions:

  • What is the most number of trinkets you can buy?
  • If you buy that max amount, how much will you have left over?

The answer to the first question is 3 trinkets because 3*11 = 33 dollars is under the budget of $35. The amount left over is 35-33 = 2 dollars which is the remainder. It's not larger than 11, so we cannot buy any more trinkets at this point.

<h2>Evaluating Composite Functions</h2><h3>Answer:</h3>

w(f(m(2))) = 593

<h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

We can write how w(f(m(x))) will be defined but that's too much work and it's only useful when we are evaluating w(f(m(x))) with many inputs.

First let's solve for m(2) first. As you read through this answer, you'll get the idea of what I'm doing.

Given:

m(x) = -4x +1

Solving for m(2):

m(2) = -4(2) +1 \\ m(2) = -8 +1 \\ m(2) = -7

Now we can solve for f(m(2)), since m(2) = -7, f(m(2)) = f(-7).

Given:

f(x)=3x-1

Solving for f(-7):

f(-7)=3(-7)-1 \\ f(-7) = -21 -1 \\ f(-7) = -22

Now we are can solve for w(-22). By now you should get the idea why w(f(m(2))) = w(-22).

Given:

w(x) = x^2 -5x -1

Solving for w(-22):

w(-22) = (-22)^2 -5(-22) -1 \\ w(-22) = 484 -5(-22) -1 \\ w(-22) = 484 +110 -1 \\ w(-22) = 593
