Answer:
yeah draw a big marble that contains each color of these marbles , 3 blue ,4 green , 5 red. try it!
Let A and B be the two complementary angles.
A = smaller angle = 2x
B = larger angle = 13x
x = some unknown number
Note how the ratio A:B turns into 2x:13x which simplifies to 2:13
A+B = 90 ... because the angles are complementary
2x+13x = 90 ... substitution
15x = 90
x = 90/15
x = 6
A = 2*x = 2*6 = 12 degrees
B = 13*x = 13*6 = 78 degrees
The two angles are 12 degrees and 78 degrees.
Check:
A/B = 12/78 = (2*6)/(13*6) = 2/13, so A:B = 2:13
A+B = 12+78 = 90
Answer:
15/4 and 45/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x and y be the numbers
x = 3y
x+ y = 15
Substitute the first equation in to the second equation
3y+y = 15
4y = 15
y = 15/4
x = 3(15/4)
x = 45/4
The two numbers are 15/4 and 45/4
Answer:
15
Step-by-step explanation:
a^2+b^2=c^2
y^2+8^2=17^2
Step 1: Simplify both sides of the equation.
y^2+64=289
Step 2: Subtract 64 from both sides.
y^2+64−64=289−64
y^2=225
Step 3: Take square root.
y=15
