The complement of an angle is three times the measurement of the angle. Find the measurement of the larger angle.

1 answer:

4 0

We know that two complements add up to 90.
Let's call the smaller angle x and the larger y.
3x = y
x + y = 90
We can use simple substitution.
x + 3x = 90
4x = 90
x = 22.5

Then, since we know that 3x=y, we can find the larger angle.
3*22.5 = 67.5

Dmitry [639]

Answer:

2/5 g/cm

Step-by-step explanation:

When you want to know "A per B", divide the given quantity of A by the corresponding quantity of B. ("Per" essentially means "divided by".)

It can be convenient to choose table values that make the division easy:

12 g/(30 cm) = 4/10 g/cm = 0.4 g/cm

20 g/(50 cm) = 2/5 g/cm . . . . . . . . . . . . . same as 0.4 g/cm

Finger [1]

Using it's concept, it is found that there is a 0.183 = 18.3% probability that the person has completed a bachelor's degree and no more.

<h3>What is a probability?</h3>

A probability is given by the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Researching this problem on the internet, it is found that 529 + 1054 = 1583 out of 1911 + 6730 = 8641 people aged 40 or older have completed a bachelor's degree and no more, hence the probability is given by:

p = 1583/8641 = 0.183.
