We know by definition that complementary angles add up to 90 degrees. We can set up an equation using the ration given:

17x+13x=90, with x representing the amount you need to multiply the ratio by to get 90.

17x+13x=90
30x=90
x=3

We now know that the number we multiply the ratio by is 3. The smaller number in the ratio is 13, and so therefore we multiply it by 3.

3*13=39

The answer is 39 degrees.

For a party, you order 4 XXL pizzas & 2 boxes of breadsticks from Rock Star Pizza for $86. You return and order 6 XXL pizzas
Alex787 [66]

Answer:

XXL = $19.75

Box of Breadstick = $3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Let :

cost per XXL pizza = x

Cost per box of bread stick = y

4x + 2y = 86 - - - (1)

6x + 4y = 132.50 - - - (2)

From (1): Divide (1) by (2)

2x + y = 43 - - - (3)

y = 43 - 2x

Substitute y = 43 - 2x into (2)

6x + 4(43 - 2x) = 132.50

6x + 172 - 8x = 132.50

-2x + 172 = 132.50

-2x = 132.50 - 172

-2x = - 39.50

x = $19.75

y = 43 - 2x

y = 43 - 2(19.75)

y = $3.5
