Answer:

m∠1 = 71°

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle 1 and 2 are complementary, meaning the measures of the two angles add up to 90°.

Set the measures of the two angles equal to 90°

(4x+3)+(x+2)=90\\

Combine like terms

5x+5=90

Solve for x

x=17

Plug the value of 'x' back into the given equation for the measure of angle 1

m

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Complimentary angles are two acute angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

Angle 1 = 4x + 3

Angle 2 = x + 2

Since angle 1 and angle 2 are complimentary angles, it means that

4x + 3 + x + 2 = 90

4x + x + 5 = 90

Subtracting 5 from the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation, it becomes

5x + 5 - 5 = 90 - 5

5x = 85

Dividing the left hand side and the right hand side of the equation by 5, it becomes

5x/5 = 85/5

x = 17

The measure of angle 1 would be

4 × 17 + 3 = 68 + 3 = 71 degrees

An ellipse has a vertex at (14, –1). The focus of the ellipse nearest that vertex is located at (8, –1). If the center of the el
zavuch27 [327]
Refer to the diagram shown below.

The right vertex is at (14, -1), and the center is at (-1, -1).
Therefore the semi-major axis is
a = 14 - (-1) = 15

The right focus is at (8, -1).
Therefore
c = 8 - (-1) = 9.

The distance of the directrix from the center is
d = c²/a = 9²/15 = 81/15 = 27/5.

Therefore the equation for the left directrix is
x = -1 - 27/5 = -32/5

Answer: x = -27/5

Ariana is shipping 8 bags of granola to a customer. Each bag weighs 22 ounces and the maximum weight she can ship in one box is
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Ariana cannot ship all the bags in one box.

Ariana will be sending 8 bags which will weigh a total of:

= 22 ounces x 8

= 176 ounces

You need to convert this to pounds to see if it will fit in the box:

<em>1 pound = 16 ounces </em>

176 ounces in pounds is therefore:

= 176 / 16

= 11 pounds

The box can only take 10 pounds and 5 ounces which is less than the 11 pounds the bags weigh.

Ariana cannot ship all the bags in one box.
