Dado dos ángulos complementarios, uno mide (2x + 10) y el otro (x + 20),
rusak2 [61]

Answer:

El valor de <em>x</em> es igual a 20 o <em>x</em> = 20.

Step-by-step explanation:

Lo primero que se debe saber es que <em>dos ángulos complementarios suman un ángulo recto o 90º</em>.

Supongamos que el valor de un ángulo \\ \alpha y un ángulo \\ \beta valen:

\\ \alpha = 2x + 10 [1]

\\ \beta = x + 20 [2]

Como la suma de  \\ \alpha + \beta = 90 [3]

Entonces

\\ \alpha + \beta = (2x + 10) + (x + 20) = 90

Sumamos los factores comunes entre si:

\\ (2x + x) + (10 + 20) = 90

Para la primera expresión debemos recordar que se suman sólo los coeficientes. Así:

\\ (2 + 1)x + (10 + 20) = 90

\\ 3x + 30 = 90

Para despejar la incógnita <em>x</em>, debemos tener en cuenta que <em>una igualdad no se altera si se suma, se resta, se multiplica o divide un mismo valor a cada lado de ella</em>. Por esta razón, para despejar 3x, lo primero que podemos hacer es sumar -30 a cada lado de la expresión (lo que es igual a restar 30 a cada lado de la misma). Así tenemos:

\\ 3x + 30 - 30 = 90 - 30

\\ 3x + 0 = 90 - 30

\\ 3x = 60

Ahora dividimos cada miembro de la igualdad entre 3 (o multiplicamos cada lado de la igualdad por \\ \frac{1}{3} ):

\\ \frac{3}{3}x = \frac{60}{3}

Como sabemos que:

\\ \frac{3}{3} = 1

Entonces:

\\ 1*x = \frac{60}{3}

\\ x = \frac{60}{3}

\\ x = 20

De esta manera, el valor de <em>x</em> es igual a 20 o x = 20.

Lo anterior lo podemos comprobar considerando las ecuaciones [1], [2] y [3]. Así tenemos que:

\\ \alpha = 2x + 10 [1]

Sustituimos x por el valor de 20:

\\ \alpha = 2*20 + 10 = 40 + 10 = 50

\\ \beta = x + 20 [2]

Hacemos lo mismo para [2]:

\\ \beta = 20 + 20

\\ \beta = 40

De esta manera:

\\ \alpha + \beta = 90 [3]

\\ 50 + 40 = 90

PLEASE HELP 20 POINTS<br> solve the system of equations y=-5x-7 and -4x-3y=-1 by substitution.
Ainat [17]

Answer:

Solution: x = -2; y = 3 or (-2, 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Equation 1:</u>  y = -5x - 7  

<u>Equation 2:</u> -4x - 3y = -1

Substitute the value of y in Equation 1 into the Equation 2:

-4x - 3(-5x - 7)  = -1

-4x +15x + 21 = -1

Combine like terms:

11x + 21 =  - 1

Subtract 21 from both sides:

11x + 21 - 21 =  - 1 - 21

11x = -22

Divide both sides by 11 to solve for x:

11x/11 = -22/11

x = -2

Now that we have the value for x, substitute x = 2 into Equation 2 to solve for y:

-4x - 3y = -1

-4(-2) - 3y = -1

8 - 3y = -1

Subtract 8 from both sides:

8 - 8 - 3y = -1 - 8

-3y = -9

Divide both sides by -3 to solve for y:

-3y/-3 = -9/-3

y = 3

Therefore, the solution to the given systems of linear equations is:

x = -2; y = 3 or (-2, 3)

Find out the number of combinations and the number of permutations for 8 objects taken 6 at a time. Express your answer in exact
umka2103 [35]

Solution:

The permutation formula is expressed as

\begin{gathered} P^n_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!} \\  \end{gathered}

The combination formula is expressed as

\begin{gathered} C^n_r=\frac{n!}{(n-r)!r!} \\  \\  \end{gathered}

where

\begin{gathered} n\Rightarrow total\text{ number of objects} \\ r\Rightarrow number\text{ of object selected} \end{gathered}

Given that 6 objects are taken at a time from 8, this implies that

\begin{gathered} n=8 \\ r=6 \end{gathered}

Thus,

Number of permuations:

\begin{gathered} P^8_6=\frac{8!}{(8-6)!} \\ =\frac{8!}{2!}=\frac{8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3\times2!}{2!} \\ 2!\text{ cancel out, thus we have} \\ \begin{equation*} 8\times7\times6\times5\times4\times3 \end{equation*} \\ \Rightarrow P_6^8=20160 \end{gathered}

Number of combinations:

\begin{gathered} C^8_6=\frac{8!}{(8-6)!6!} \\ =\frac{8!}{2!\times6!}=\frac{8\times7\times6!}{6!\times2\times1} \\ 6!\text{ cancel out, thus we have} \\ \frac{8\times7}{2} \\ \Rightarrow C_6^8=28 \end{gathered}

Hence, there are 28 combinations and 20160 permutations.
