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

There are many cylinders with a height of 9 inches. Let r represent the radius in
mylen [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

V, r, h are the volume, radius, and height, respectively.

V = πr²h = 9πr²

The only error in your previous answers was that you forgot the π.

if r = 1, V = 9π1² = 9π ≅ 28 in³

if r = 2, V = 9π2² = 36π ≅ 113 in³

if r = 3, V = 9π3² = 81π ≅ 254 in³

The measure of an interior angle of a regular octagon is how many degrees greater than the measure of an interior angle of a reg
harina [27]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sum of interior angle of any polygon = 180* (n- 2 )

Here, n= number of sides

Sum of interior angles of regular octagon = 180 * ( 8-2) = 180 * 6 = 1080°

In regular octagon, all the angles are congruent,

So, measure of an interior angle of regular octagon = 1080/8 =  135°

Sum of interior angles of regular hexagon = 180 * ( 6-2) = 180*4 = 720°

In regular hexagon, all the angles are congruent,

So, measure of an interior angle of regular hexagon = 720/6 =  120°

The measure of an interior angle of a regular octagon is  greater than the measure of an interior angle of a regular hexagon by 15°

Blake rows his boat against a current 90 yards in 15 minutes. With a current, he rows 90 yards in 9 minutes. What is the rate at
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

90 yards in 15 minutes =6 yds/min

90 yards in 9 minutes =10 yds/min

x = current rate

r = rowing rate

r + x = 10

r - x = 6  Adding both equations

2 r = 16

rowing rate = 8 yds/min

x = 2 yds/min (current rate)
