Complentary angles add to 90 degrees
a and b are complentary
a+b=90

a=7x+4
b=4x+9
so
7x+4+4x+9=90
combine like terms
11x+13=90
minus 13 both sides
11x=77
divide both sides by 11
x=7

m a =7x+4=7(7)+4=49+4=53
m b=4x+9=4(7)+9=28+9=37

angle a measures 53 degrees
angle b measures 37 degrees

A would be 53 and b would be 37.
37 +53 =90 complementary angle =90°

evablogger [386]
y= 1.25x+6.75
Make 31.75 y because that is the total cost he paid.
1.25x+6.75=31.75
1.25x=25
x=20
So he had 20 refills.

Help!!
klio [65]

Answer:

The answer is 14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since all of the angles of a triangle add up to be 180, then all you have to do is add the 2 angles together that you have and subtract that number from 180. For example 141+25=166, so, 180-166=14. 14 would be the measure of the third angle.

Answer:

a   10 yd   2ft  7 in

b 10 yd  1 ft  2 in

c  99 yd

d.  4840 sq  yd  7 sq ft  119 sq in  

Step-by-step explanation:

a.      2 ft. 5 in. +

9 yd. 3 ft. 2 in.

---------------------

9 yd   5ft   7 in

but 3 ft = 1yd

9 yd   5ft   7 in

+1yd   - 3ft

---------------------------

10 yd   2ft  7 in



b. 4 yd. 8 in

+ 6 yd. 6 in.

----------------------

10 yd   14 in

but 12 in = 1ft


10 yd       14 in

     + 1ft   - 12 in

---------------------

10 yd  1 ft  2 in



c. 29 yd. 2 ft. 11 in.

  55 yd. 1 ft. 10 in.

+ 13 yd. 1 ft. 3 in.  

--------------------------

97 yd   4 ft   24 in

12 in = 1ft

24 in = 2ft


97 yd   4 ft   24 in

           +2ft    - 24 in

--------------------------------

97 yd   6ft

3 ft = 1yd

6f = 2yd


97 yd   6ft

+2yd   - 6ft

---------------------

99 yd


d. 4,839 sq. yd. 8 sq. ft. 139 sq. in.

                      + 7 sq. ft. 124 sq. in.

--------------------------------------------------

  4839  sq yd  15 sq ft   263 sq in

12*12 = 144 sq in = 1 sq ft

 4839  sq yd  15 sq ft   263 sq in

                       + 1 sq ft  - 144 sq in

--------------------------------------------------

4839  sq yd  16 sq ft  119 sq in

3ft * 3 ft = 9 sq ft = 1 sq yd

4839  sq yd  16 sq ft  119 sq in

      +1 sq yd  - 9 sq ft

----------------------------------------------

4840 sq  yd  7 sq ft  119 sq in
