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.

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

The fraction of cup filled with water is 3/4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Antonia has a mug with a capacity of 2/3L of water. What fraction of that mug will she fill with 1/2L of water?

Capacity = 2/3 L

Amount of water = 1/2 L

Fraction of amount of water to the capacity of mug is

$\frac{1}{2}\div \frac{2}{3}\\\\\frac{3}{4}$

Find the missing length

Apply the Pyth. Theorem:

c^2 = 3^2 + 7^2, or c^2 = 9 + 49 = 58. Thus, c = sqrt(58).

Which is the simplified form of the expression 3(7/5x+4) - 2(3/2 - 5/4x)?

Kruka [31]

Answer:

B. $\frac{67}{10} x + 9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify the expression. Remember to go by the order of operations, or PEMDAS.

1) First, distribute the numbers outside of the set of parentheses to the terms inside the set of parentheses next to them. Then, simplify the fractions.

$3(\frac{7}{5} x + 4) -2 (\frac{3}{2} -\frac{5}{4} x)$

$\frac{21}{5}x + 12 - \frac{6}{2} + \frac{10}{4} x$

$\frac{21}{5} x + 12 - 3 + \frac{10}{4} x$

2) Finally, combine like terms. (This means to add or subtract constants and to add or subtract terms with the same variables.) You may need to convert terms to the same denominator in order to do so easier. Then, reduce the fraction.

$\frac{21}{5} x + 9 + \frac{10}{4}x \\\frac{84}{20}x + \frac{50}{20}x + 9 \\\frac{134}{20}x + 9 \\\frac{67}{10}x + 9$

Thus, the answer is $\frac{67}{10} x + 9$ .

It took a car 4 days to travel 2686 miles. What was this car's average speed, in miles per hour? (round to the nearest mile per

mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well we know that in a day there are 24 hrs so in 4 days there will be 96 hrs

so the car travelled 2686 miles in 96 hours

2686/96= 27.9791666667

So the car's average speed is about 28
