Answer:

40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have a sum of 90.

y = 90 - x

The angle is 260 degrees less than six times its complement.

y = 6x - 260

90 - x = 6x - 260

350 - x = 6x

350 = 7x

50 = x

This is the measure of the complement.

y = 90 - x

y = 90 - 50

y = 40

This is the measure of the first angle.

What does the variable represent in the equation 6-8p=38

GalinKa [24]

Solving the equation $6-8p=38$ we get value of p = -4

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to find the value of p in the equation $6-8p=38$

Solving to find value of p:

$6-8p=38\\Adding\,\,-6\,\,on\,\,both\,\,sides:\\6-8p-6=38-6\\-8p=32\\Divide\,\,both\,\,sides\,\,by\,\,-8\\\frac{-8p}{-8}=\frac{32}{-8}\\p=-4$

So, solving the equation $6-8p=38$ we get value of p = -4

Each day in Bio 18, Derek leaves a stack of paper packets near the entry door for students to obtain. Eighty-one percent of stud

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability distribution because there are only 2 possible outcomes. It is either a randomly selected student grabs a packet before being seated or the student sits first before grabbing a packet. The probability of success, p in this scenario would be that a randomly selected student sits first before grabbing a packet. Therefore,

p = 1 - 0.81 = 0.91

n = 9 students

x = number of success = 3

The probability that exactly two students sit first before grabbing a packet, P(x = 2) would be determined from the binomial probability distribution calculator. Therefore,

P(x = 2) = 0.297

Find the equation of plane that contains P(1,-1,2) and has the normal n=2i+3j+5k (please answer quickly )

mixas84 [53]

Answer:

2x + 3y + 5z = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The normal defines all the planes perpendicular to that vector. To isolate to a single plane, just apply the known point.

ax + by + cz = d

2x + 3y + 5z = d

2(1) + 3(-1) + 5(2) = 9
