Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the 2 equations

x = 3 - y → (1)

5x - 12 = y → (2)

Substitute x = 3 - y into (2)

5(3 - y) - 12 = y ← distribute and simplify left side

15 - 5y - 12 = y

3 - 5y = y ( add 5y to both sides )

3 = 6y ( divide both sides by 6 )

$\frac{3}{6}$ = y, that is

y = 0.5 → A

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the first equation into the second equation. 5(3-y)-12=y

15-5y-12=y. Combine like terms. 3-5y=y. Move the -5y to the other side. 3=y+5y which is 3=6y divide and y=1/2 or 0.5

Tell whether each pair of angle measurements are complementary, supplementary or neither.  36°,24°  18°,72°  96°,84°

Serggg [28]

Given:

The pairs of angles are:

36°,24°

18°,72°

96°,84°

To find:

Whether each pair of angle measurements are complementary, supplementary or neither.

Solution:

Two angles are complementary if there sum is 90 degrees.

Two angles are supplementary if there sum is 180 degrees.

For 36° and 24°,

$36^\circ+24^\circ =60^\circ$

So, this pair is neither complementary not supplementary.

For 18° and 72°,

$18^\circ+72^\circ =90^\circ$

So, this pair is complementary.

For 96° and 84°,

$96^\circ+84^\circ =180^\circ$

So, this pair is supplementary.

Please follow the directions. Don't round immediate calculations. Please try to get it right

marin [14]

Answer:

well without rounding anything, I got 511.9999999992 people

Step-by-step explanation:

so the ratio I used was 36 people for every 225 people( 225 because in total he asked 225 people) then I divided 3,200 into 225 to see how many times It would fit, the answer was 14.2222222222 then I multiplied that by 36 and my answer was 511.9999999992 people. I hope this helps, I tried to be as accurate as possible.
