1: establish the angles, basically label one x (the small one) and the other y (the bigger one)

2. supplementary angles add up to 180, so therefore you have the equation x + y = 180.

3. so y (the bigger one) is 8 less than 3 times the smaller one (x) therefore you come up with the equation y = 3x - 8

4. plug in the equation of the bigger one into the other equation

x + 3x - 8 = 180
(combine like terms)
4x - 8 = 180

5. solve the equation by adding 8 to 180, then by dividing by 4.
x should equal 47

6. plug in 47 into the x + y = 180 equation, subtract 47 from 180 and you end up with 133

i hope i explained it alright

Four times the square of a certain number increased by 6 times the number equals 108. Find the number
vodomira [7]
-6 and 4.5
So to do this you’ll make an equation x will represent the number so 4x^2+6x=108 so we want the equation to equal 0 so we can solve it to do that you have to subtract 108 from both sides so it ends up being 4x^2+6x-108=0 we want to isolate the x onto one side and division property allows us to divide both sides by 2 the reason it’s two is because 2 is the biggest divisible number that every number in the equation is divisible by so once you divide every number by two you get 2x^2+3x-54=0 now you have to factor cause but since you only have 3x and nothing else to factor with you have to write 3x as a difference so you could do 2x^2+12x-9x-54=0 so you are complicating the problem so you can factor out 2x from the expression so 2x(x+6)- 9(x+6)=0 the 54 got factored because it’s divisible by 9 that 6 is in replace of the 54 cause if you solved it 9x6 is still 54 next factor out x+6 so (x+6) x (2x-9) =0 so one of the two have to equal 0 so right the equations separately x+6=0 minus 6 from both sides and you’ll get x to equal -6 and 2x-9=0 add 9 to both sides and you’ll get 2x=9 divide both sides by 9 and you’ll get x to equal 4.5 when you plug 4.5 and -6 for x the equation works out

Classify the number -3 into as many categories as it belongs: Natural number, whole number, integer, or rational number.
Effectus [21]
-3 is an integer and a rational number.


Natural numbers and while numbers refer to positive numbers, so -3 cannot be either of those.
