Two angles are complementary. The first angle is 2x degrees. The second angle is (3x +5) degrees. Determine the measure of each
bixtya [17]

Answer:

70 and 110

Step-by-step explanation:

First angle -- 2x

Second angle -- 3x + 5

Therefore,

2x + 3x + 5 = 180

5x = 175

x = 35

Therefore, 2x -- 70

3x + 5 -------------110

The sum of three consecutive odd numbers is 69. What are the three numbers?
n200080 [17]

Answer:

21, 23, 25

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so this one may seem a little tricky, so I'll try to explain it as best as I can. :)

So because they are consecutive odd numbers, that means they are odd numbers that are one after the other. This means each number is 2 apart from the next. So by using this, we know that there is a difference of 6 between the highest and lowest number. Now let's try and make an equation:

3o + 6 = 69

Now in order to get O by itself we have to subtract 6 from both sides:

3o = 63

Now we just have to divide by three on both sides:

o = 21

So now, we know that the lowest number is 21, but we have to add 2 to get 23, and then another 2 to get 25.

Hope this helps :)

Train A leaves New York for California at the same time Train B leaves California for New York. They are 2900 miles apart. They
professor190 [17]

Answer:

(A) 120 mph

(B) -120 mph

(C) 12 hours 5 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

New York and California are 2900 miles apart,

Both the trains A as well as B travel at an average speed of 120 mph.

Assuming that the path between the starting point in New York and the ending point in California is straight, so the given distance of 2900 miles is actually the shortest distance which is the displacement between the source and destination.

So, the given speed on the straight path is actually the velocity.

Assuming that the velocity is positive in the direction from New York towards California.

(A) So, the velocity of train A (towards California)  = 120 mph.

(B) The velocity of train B (towards New York) = -120 mph.

(C) Bothy are moving towards each other, so the relative velocity between them is 120+120=240 mph, and the initial distance between them is 2900 miles.

When they meet, the displacement between them becomes zero, displacement covered= 2900-0=2900 miles.

So, the time, t, taken to cover the displacement 2900 miles with a relative velocity of 240 mph is

t=\frac{2900}{240} [as time= displacement / relative velocity]

\Rightarrow t=12\frac{1}{12} hours

=12 hours 5 minutes.

On a map the distance between rip and Janeiro Brazil and San Jose Costa Rica is 4 inches.the scale on the map shows that 1 inch=
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

The way a proportion is set is as follows;

\dfrac{1 \ inch}{200 \ miles } = \dfrac{4 \ inches}{ Distance \ from \ Rio \ de \ Janeiro \ to \ San \ Jose}

The Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica is then found as  800 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimension of the distance between Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 4 inches

The map scale = 1 inch to 200 miles

To figure out how many miles it is or the actual distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica, we have;

\dfrac{1 \ inch}{200 \ miles } = \dfrac{4 \ inches}{ Distance \ from \ Rio \ de \ Janeiro \ to \ San \ Jose}

Therefore, we have;

(4 inches × 200 miles)/(1 inche) = Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica

Which gives;

Distance from Rio de Janeiro and San Jose Costa Rica = 800 miles.
