What is the measure of an angle if it is 260 degrees less than six times its own complement?

Mathematics

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.

How would I start to solve number 15? Would I use distributive property?
natita [175]
-5-x=2x-(4x+6)

Using the distributive property is the correct first step. (4x+6) is being multiplied by -1, so distributing gives

-5-x=2x+(-4x-6)
-5-x=2x+((-4x)+(-6))

Now, using the associative property of addition, you get

-5-x=(2x+(-4x))+(-6)
-5-x=(2x-4x)-6

Simplify the right hand side:

-5-x=-2x-6

Add 5 and 2x to both sides.

(2x+5)-5-x=(2x+5)-2x-6

On the left side, use the associative property. On the right, commutativity and associativity:

2x+(5-5)-x=5+(2x-2x)-6

Simplify.

2x-x=-1
x=-1
