Answer:

B = 68°  and  C = 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let angle B's measure be B and angle C's measure be C.

Also note that complementary means that they sum to 90.

Now:

<u>The m∠B is two more than three times the measure of ∠C:</u>

we can write:

B = 3C + 2

<u>If ∠B and ∠C are complementary angles:</u>

B + C = 90

Putting 1st equation in 2nd, we get:

B + C = 90

3C + 2 + C = 90

4C = 90 - 2

4C = 88

C = 88/4 = 22

Now B = 3C + 2, so

B = 3(22) + 2 = 68

Hence, B = 68 degrees and C = 22 degrees

I need help on #4 ASAP!!!!

Hi there. 

A triangle's interior angles must always add up to 180 degrees. Since we already have one measurement, 56, we can set up an equation to solve for the missing angles.

(2x + 4) + 56 + x= 180; solve for x.
Subtract 56 from both sides.
(2x + 4) + x = 124;
Combine like-terms (x).
3x + 4 = 124;
Subtract 4 from both sides.
3x = 120
Divide both sides by 3 to solve for x.
x = 40.

Now, we need to substitute x with 40 in each of our angles to determine their measurements.
2x + 4; x = 40.
2(40) + 4 = 80 + 4 = 84; 
One measurement is 84 degrees.

x = 40 is another measurement on its own.

Our measurements are:
56, 84, and 40.

Your corresponding answer choice is H.) 56, 84, 40.

I hope this helps!

You deposit $5000 in an account earning 8% interest compounded monthly. How much will you have in the account in 15 years?
Rasek [7]

\bf ~~~~~~ \textit{Compound Interest Earned Amount} \\\\ A=P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt} \quad \begin{cases} A=\textit{accumulated amount}\\ P=\textit{original amount deposited}\dotfill &\$5000\\ r=rate\to 8\%\to \frac{8}{100}\dotfill &0.08\\ n= \begin{array}{llll} \textit{times it compounds per year}\\ \textit{monthly, thus twelve} \end{array}\dotfill &12\\ t=years\dotfill &15 \end{cases}

\bf A=5000\left(1+\frac{0.08}{12}\right)^{12\cdot 15}\implies A=5000(1.00\overline{66})^{180}\implies A\approx 16534.61
