X + y = 2400
y = 3x

x + 3x = 2400
4x = 2400
x = 2400/4
x = 600 <== Mrs. Storey drove 600 miles

y = 3x
y = 3(600)
y = 1800 <== Mr. Storey drove 1800 miles

An angle measured 10 degrees less than the measure of its complementary angle. Find the measure of both angles
Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

The measure of the angles are 40 degrees and 50 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x ----> the measure of one angle in degrees

y ----> the measure of the complementary angle in degrees

we know that

If two angles are complementary, then their sum is equal to 90 degrees

so

x+y=90 ----> equation A

we have that

x=y-10 ----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

(y-10)+y=90\\2y-10=90\\2y=100\\y=50

Find the value of x

x=50-10=40

therefore

The measure of the angles are 40 degrees and 50 degrees

Mashcka [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

2 2/3

=><em>If</em> 8/3 = 1/6

x =1

1/6x = 8/3 ( Divide both sides by <em>1</em><em>/</em><em>6</em><em> </em>)

___ ___

1/6 1/6

(By cross-multiplying the numerators and denominators)

=> 1×6 8×6

___ x = ___

6×1 3×1

Cancelling out , we have

x = 8×2

____ = 8×2 = 16

1 × 1

<em>The</em><em> </em><em>final</em><em> </em><em>answer</em><em> </em><em>becomes</em><em> </em><em>1</em><em>6</em>

<em>Hope</em><em> </em><em>it</em><em> </em><em>helps</em><em>.</em>
