supplement means the sum of the two angles is 180° → y = 180 - x

complement means the sum of the two angles is 90° → y = 90 - x

supplement - 3(complement) = 46

(180 - x) - 3(90 - x) = 46

(180 - x) - 270 + 3x = 46

2x - 90 = 46

2x = 136

x = 68

Answer: 68°

Factor completely 4u^2-28u+49

aleksandrvk [35]

Assignment: $\bold{Factor \ 4u^2-28u+49}$

<><><><><>

Answer: $\boxed{\bold{\left(2u-7\right)^2}}$

<><><><><>

Explanation: $\downarrow\downarrow\downarrow$

<><><><><>

[ Step One ] Rewrite $\bold{4u^2-28u+49}$

$\bold{\left(2u\right)^2-2\cdot \:2u\cdot \:7+7^2}$

[ Step Two ] Apply perfect square formula

Note: Perfect Square Formula: $\bold{\left(a-b\right)^2=a^2-2ab+b^2}$

$\bold{a=2u,\:b=7}$

$\bold{\left(2u-7\right)^2}$

Kayla thinks that the slope of a vertical line is undefined, while Joshua argues that the slope of a vertical line is zero. Who

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

Kayla is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

For a vertical line, the x-value is the same

This means there is no change in the x value

A slope is calculated by dividing by the change in x value

since in this case , we will be dividing by zero, it means that the value of our slope is going to be undefined

This means that Kayla is correct
