Answer:

B = 31, C = 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be the number of Black printer ink cartridges and C be the number of color printer ink cartridges.

42 were sold in total, hence,

B+C= 42 ------------(1)

Also, its given that

14.99 B+20.99C= 695.58 ------(2)

Multiplying (1) by 20.99,

14.99 B+14.99 C= 629.58 ------(3)

Now, subtracting (3) from (2),

14.99 B+20.99C= 695.58

14.99 B+14.99 C= 629.58

------------------------------------

6 C = 66

C= 66/6

C = 11

We know, B+ C= 49

Hence B = 42- 11 = 31

B = 31

Hence, number of Black printer ink cartridges = 31 and color printer ink cartridges = 11 .

An angle measures 19.4° more than the measure of its complementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?
8090 [49]

Answer:

37.8+52.2=90

Step-by-step explanation: x + (x + 14.4) = 90

2x + 14.4 = 90

2x = 75.6

x = 37.8  (one angle)

And (x + 14.4) = 52.2 (other angle).
