If B is a complement of A this means that the sum of the measures of A and B is 90 degrees.

mA + mB = 90
mB =90 - mA
mB = 90 - 40 = 50

Thus, the measure of angle B is 50 degrees.

If C is a supplement of B then, the sum of the measures of B and C is 180 degrees.
mC + mB = 180
mC = 180 - mB
mC = 180 - 50 = 130

Therefore, the measure of angle C is 130 degrees.

A truck is bought at the price of $67,000. The price decreases at the rate of .30 every year (t). Which equation matches this ex

chubhunter [2.5K]

Data:

Initial price: $67.000

Price decrease: .30 each year t

The general form of a model of exponential decrease is:

$f(t)=p_0(1-r)^t$

Where P0 is the initial price, r is the rate of decrease and t the number of periods.

Then, for the given situation you get the next equation:

$\begin{gathered} f(t)=67000(1-0.30)^t \\ f(t)=67000(.70)^t \end{gathered}$ Then, the answer is the option D.

Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

C. 20

Step-by-step explanation:

The order in which the members are selected is important. The first one selected is the president and the second is the vice president.

So we use the permutations formula to solve this question.

Permutations formula:

The number of possible permutations of x elements from a set of n elements is given by the following formula:
