If you have a right triangle and one angle in the triangle is 45 degrees, the other would have to be complementary (an angle that adds up to another to form a right angle) so the other angle would have to be 45 degrees to make that a right angle 90 degrees. So complementary angles are two angles that add up to equal 90 degrees.

Which system of equations can be used to find the roots of the equation 12 x 3-5x=2 x 2+x+6

kirill [66]

Answer:

Option (a) is correct.

The system of equation becomes

$y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

We have to construct a system of equations that can be used to find the roots of the equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

Consider the given equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

To construct a system of equation put both sides of the given equation equal to a same variable.

Let the variable be "y", Then the equation $12x^3-5x=2x^2+x+6$

becomes,

$12x^3-5x=y=2x^2+x+6$

Thus, The system of equation becomes

$y=12x^3-5x\\\\ y=2x^2+x+6$

Option (a) is correct.
