Answer:

The value of a is "3", to complete the coordinate point (3,7) on the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the slope of the line, and also one point through which the line passes. Therefore, we can find the actual equation of the line by using the slope-point form of the line:

y-y_0=m(x-x_0)\\y-(-2)=(-3)(x-6)\\y+2=-3x+18\\y=-3x+18-2\\y=-3x+16

Now, we need to find which value of "x" renders a y-value of "7", to complete the coordinate pair (a, 7) as requested. Therefore, we ask for the y-value in the previous equation to be "7", and solve for its associated x-value:

y=-3x+16\\7=-3x+16\\7-16=-3x\\-9=-3x\\x=\frac{-9}{-3} \\x=3

Therefore, x = 3

Suppose angles A and B are complementary angles and m∠A = (x-5)° and m∠B = (2x+20)° Solve for X and then find m∠A and m∠B
MariettaO [177]

The angles are x =25, angle A = 20 and B = 70

<h3>How to solve for the angles?</h3>

The given parameters are:

A = x - 5

B = 2x + 20

Both angles are complementary angles.

This means that:

x - 5 + 2x + 20 = 90

Evaluate the like terms

3x = 75

Divide both sides by 3

x = 25

Substitute x = 25 in A = x - 5 and B = 2x + 20

A = 25 - 5 = 20

B = 2 * 25 + 20 = 70

Hence, the angles are x =25, angle A = 20 and B = 70

Depreciation of 11% per year means that the price is multiplied by 89% (0.89) every year. Do this 11 times or use exponents

Final price:
207000*(0.89^11) = 57446.083
