Answer:

28 meters.

40 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the larger piece, then we have:

1/4 x + 5 = 12

1/4 x = 12 - 5

1/4 x = 7

Multiply both sides by 4:

x = 28 meters.

The total length of the carpet =  12 + 28 = 40 meters.

An angle measures 19.4° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
8090 [49]

Answer:

37.8+52.2=90

Step-by-step explanation: x + (x + 14.4) = 90

2x + 14.4 = 90

2x = 75.6

x = 37.8  (one angle)

And (x + 14.4) = 52.2 (other angle).

Subtract 7 from the product of 4 and a number results in the number added to 29 is what
german
4x-7=29 < do you understand how to set that up? Now, the goal is to “get x by itself.”

4x-7=29< now add the 7 to the 29. When you cross an equals sign you change the (+/-) sign of the number you’re moving.

4x= 36< now you will just divide by 4 on both sides. This will give you x by itself on the left side of the equals sign.

x=36/4 which is 9

X=9 :))
