The angles are complementary meaning they =90 degrees.

So take (x-20) and x, and write this equation,

x-20+x=90

2x-20=90

move the 20 over

2x-20=90
+20 +20

2x=110

x=55.

You can check it by plugging it back in,

(55-20)=35
and
x=55

35+55=90.

Thus, you know your answer is correct.

What situations would solve by graphing be your preferred choice? Give an example.

Damm [24]

Answer:

1) The solve by graphing will the preferred choice when the equation is complex to be easily solved by the other means

Example;

y = x⁵ + 4·x⁴ + 3·x³ + 2·x² + x + 3

2) Solving by substitution is suitable where we have two or more variables in two or more (equal number) of equations

2x + 6y = 16

x + y = 6

We can substitute the value of x = 6 - y, into the first equation and solve from there

3) Solving an equation be Elimination, is suitable when there are two or more equations with coefficients of the form, 2·x + 6·y = 23 and x + y = 16

Multiplying the second equation by 2 and subtracting it from the first equation as follows

2·x + 6·y - 2×(x + y) = 23 - 2 × 16

2·x - 2·x + 6·y - 2·y = 23 - 32

0 + 4·y = -9

4) An example of a linear system that can be solved by all three methods is given as follows;

2·x + 6·y = 23

x + y = 16

Answer:

Sum of exterior angle of polygon=360

Each exterior angle of polygon =24

Number of sides of polygon=\frac{360}{24}

360

=15

=> Number of sides of polygon with each angle of 24 is 15.

ziro4ka [17]

Question:

Sal is trying to determine which cell phone and service plan to buy for his mother. The first phone costs $100 and $55 per month for unlimited usage. The second phone costs $150 and $51 per month for unlimited usage.

The inequality that will determine the number of months, x, that are required for the second phone to be less expensive is .

The solution to the inequality is .

Sal’s mother would have to keep the second cell phone plan for at least months in order for it to be less expensive.

Answer:

a. $150 + 51x < 100 + 55x$
