Answer:

5 and 85 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so if 2 angles are complementary, that means when put together they equal 90 degrees.

So, let's say one angle is a.

This means the bigger angle would be 17 times the smaller angle, or 17a.

Now let's make an equation:

a + 17a = 90

Now, we have to combine the like terms:

18a = 90

Now in order to find the smaller angle, we just have to divide by 5:

a = 5

This means that the smaller angle is 5 degrees, but because the bigger angle is 17 times the size, we just multiply 5 and 17 together to get 85 degrees.

Hope this helps :)

You want to put some money in a simple interest account it pays 8% interest annually for 2 years you would like to earn 500 doll
Semmy [17]

You deposit some money into a bank account paying 8% simple interest per year. You received $500 in interest after 2 years. How much the deposit (principal) was?


Result


The principal was $3125.


Explanation


Find principal by using the formula I=P⋅i⋅t, where I is interest, P is total principal, i is rate of interest per year, and t is total time in years.


In this example I = $500, i = 8% and t = 2 years, so


IPPP=P⋅i⋅t=Ii⋅t=5000.08⋅2=3125
