Complementary angles mean that the sum adds up to 90 degrees.
We are given A and B are complementary, so
angle A + angle B = 90  (as stated in the solution).
Substituting angles, =>
3x-8 + 5x+10 = 90
group like terms
3x + 5x -8 +10 =90
simplify
8x + 2 =90
Subtract 2 from each side of the equal sign
8x +2 -2  =  90 -2
=>
8x = 88
divide by 8 on both sides
8x/8 = 88/8
x = 11

Substitute x=11 into angles A and B
angle A = 3x-8 = 3(11)-8 = 25 degrees
angle B = 5x+10 = 5(11)+10 = 65 degrees

Check supplementary angles
A+B = 25+65 = 90   => angles A & B are complementary, .... solution is good.

Complementary angles ⇒ the angles add up to 90°

∠A and ∠B are complementary ⇒ ∠A + ∠B = 90°

∠A + ∠B = 90°

Plug in the values for ∠A and ∠B:
(3x - 8) + (5x + 10)  = 90

Open the brackets:
3x - 8 + 5x + 10 = 90

Combine like terms:
8x + 2 = 90

Subtract 2 from both sides:
8x = 88

Divide both sides by 8:
x = 11

Answer: x = 11

Lets x to be number of students.

1) If each students get 3 ml, then all students get 3x ml.
There was  n ml.
(n-3x) ml leftover

n - 3x = 5

2) If each students get 4 ml. 
then  all students get 4x ml.

n+21 = 4x

3)
   n - 3x = 5
- (n+21 = 4x) ------->   -n -21=-4x

n - 3x = 5
<span>-n -21= - 4x
</span>-3x-21=5 - 4x
x=5+21
x=26 

 Answer : 26 students

Check:
x=26, n-3x = 5, n-3*26=5, n=83
n+21 = 4x
83+21=4*26
104 = 104 true

Which equation represents the line that passes through the point (4, -5) and is perpendicular to the line x + 2y = 5?
Lerok [7]

Answer:

y = 2x - 13

Step-by-step explanation:

Equation of a line is y = mx + c, m is the gradient and c is the intercept

The line passes through points 4 and -5, x is 4 and y is -5

-5 = 4m + c

When two lines are perpendicular, the products of their gradients are equal to -1, m1 * m2 = -1

x + 2y = 5

2y = -x + 5

y = (-1/2 * x) + 5

therefore m = -1/2

m1 * m2 = -1

m * -1/2 = -1

-m = -2 , therefore m = 2

-5 = 4 * 2 + c

c = -5 - 8, which is -13

Therefore the equation for the line is

y = 2x - 13

5. A ball is thrown upward with an initial velocity of 50 feet per second. The
dangina [55]

Answer:

SEE BELOW IN BOLD.

Step-by-step explanation:

a.

h = -16t^2 + 50t

h = 20 t

When the height is the same:

-16t^2 + 50t = 20t

-16t^2  + 30t = 0

t(-16t + 30) = 0

t = 0 or  -16t + 30 = 0, so:

t = 0 or -30/-16 = 1.875

So the answer is 1.88 seconds to the nearest hundredth.

b.

For the ball

h = -16t^2 + 50t

Finding the derivative and equating to zero:

dh/dt = -32t + 50 = 0

t = -50/-32 = 1.563

Maximum height after 1.56 seconds to nearest hundredth

c.

When the ball hits the ground h = 0 so

-16t^2 + 50t = 0

-16t(t - 50/16)= 0

T = 3.13 SECONDS TO THE NEAREST HUNDERDTH
