Answer:
ZB = 54
Step-by-step explanation:
Complementary angles add to 90 degrees
ZA + ZB = 90
x-15 + x+3 = 90
Combine like terms
2x-12 =90
Add 12 to each side
2x-12+12 = 90+12
2x = 102
Divide by 2
2x/2 = 102/2
x = 51
We want to find the measure of ZB
ZB = x+3
ZB = 51+3
ZB = 54
There is no work to show. It is really just trial and error till you get the hang of it. You look at the multiples of the last term and find.which add or subtract to the middle terms coefficient. Use DeCartes law of signs to determine if it is plus or minus.
1. Does not factor solve using other method
2. (X-5)^2
Isolate the x. Note the equal sign. What you do to one side you do to the other.
Subtract 2y from both sides
2x + 2y (-2y) = 10 (-2y)
2x = 10 - 2y
Isolate the x, divide 2 from both sides and from all terms.
(2x)/2 = (10 - 2y)/2
x = 5 - y
Place the variable in the front
x = -y + 5
x = -y + 5 is your answer
hope this helps
Its the same thing because your just switching the order which doesn't matter when your adding or multiplying
Answer:
1,516 pounds
Step-by-step explanation:
Gorilla A weighed = 559 pounds Gorilla B weighed = 827 pounds Gorilla C weighed = 130 pounds
Total weight of the gorillas = gorilla A + gorilla B + gorilla C
= 559 pounds + 827 pounds + 130 pounds
= 1,516 pounds
Total weight of the gorillas = 1,516 pounds
