Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

supplementary angles add up to 180

so let one angle be x.....and the other angle is 5 times bigger....so let the second angle be 5x

x + 5x = 180

6x = 180

x = 180/6

x = 30

5x = 5(30) = 150

so one angle is 30 and the other angle is 150

The angles represented by the expressions (2x+46) and (3x-6) are complementary angles. find the measure of the larger angle. Im

ivolga24 [154]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

complimentary angles add up to 90 so:

3x-6 + 2x +46 = 90

5x +40 = 90

5x = 50

x = 10

2(10)+46 = 66

3(10) - 6 = 24

Answer: $\bold{\dfrac{125}{1296}}$

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The probability of NOT getting a 4 means the probability of getting a 1, 2, 3, 5, or 6 which is 5 out of 6 = $\dfrac{5}{6}$

The probability of getting a 4 is 1 out of 6 = $\dfrac{1}{6}$

The probability of getting a 4 only on the last roll is:

NOT 4 and NOT 4 and NOT 4 and Yes 4

$\dfrac{5}{6}$ x $\dfrac{5}{6}$ x $\dfrac{5}{6}$ x $\dfrac{1}{6}$ = $\dfrac{5^3}{6^4}= \dfrac{125}{1296}$

Three times the square of non -zero number is equal to nine times the number.

madam [21]

Three times the square of a number means $3x^2$

Nine times a number is $9x$

If these quantities must be equal, we have

$3x^2=9x$

We can divide both sides by 3 to get

$x^2=3x$

Since x is non-zero, we can divide both sides by x:

$x=3$
