If 2 angles are supplementary:
α + β = 180°
α = 3 β + 54°
3 β + 54° + β = 180°
4 β = 126°
β = 126° : 4
β = 31° 30 `
α = 180° - 31° 30 `
α = 148° 30 `
Answer:
The measure of the first angle is 148° 30 `.

B is the midpoint of ac. Ab = x+9 and bc = 3x-7 find x and ac
natali 33 [55]

To solve this problem, we need to know 2 relationships:

<h2>1. AC = AB + BC</h2>

The distance of AC is the sum of AB and BC.

AC = AB + BC

We know this since the distance of going from A to C (AC) is the same as going from A to B (AB), then B to C (BC).

<h2>2. AB = BC</h2>

The distance of AB is the same as AC.

AB = BC

We know this since B is in the middle of AC, so the distance from B to A (BA) is the same as the distance from B to C (BC).

You can see the attached image (at the bottom) for a visualization of this.

<h2>Putting them together</h2>

Since we know the values of AB and BC...

AB = x+9\\BC = 3x-7

...we can put these values into our 2nd equation and solve for x:

AB = BC\\x + 9 = 3x -7

Add 7 to both sides:

x + 16 = 3x

Subtract x from both sides:

16 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2:

8 = x\\x = 8

Knowing x, we can find the distance of AC using our first equation.

AC = AB + BC

Let's put in the values of AB and BC:

AC = (x+9) + (3x-7)

Before we put in x = 8, we can simplify this:

AC = (x+9) + (3x-7)\\AC = x + 9 + 3x -7\\AC = x + 3x + 9 -7\\AC = 4x + 9 - 7\\AC = 4x+2

We group x and 3x and add those together. Then we subtract 7 from 9.

With this equation, we can put in x = 8:

AC = 4x +2\\AC = 4*8 + 2

Since 4 * 8 = 32:

AC = 4 * 8 + 2\\AC = 32 + 2\\AC = 34

Finally, we have found both x and AC.

<h2>Answer</h2>

x = 8

AC = 34

What is the radian measure of the smallest angle formed by the hands of a clock at 7 o'clock?
netineya [11]
See the picture attached to better understand the problem
we know that
a full circle is a 360 degrees
divided in 12 equals parts-------> 360/12-------> 30 degrees each part

<span>the smallest angle formed by the hands of a clock at 7 o'clock has 5 parts
so
5*30</span>°------> 150°

convert to radian
pi radians---------> 180°
 x ---------------> 150°
x=150*pi/180--------> x=0.83*pi radians

the answer is
0.83*pi radians  or 2.62 radians

Answer Question Pls? I need Help!!
QveST [7]

Answer:

option D

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the two through which the lines passes.

Let it be ( -5 , 0) and ( 0 , -3)

Step 1 : Find slope, m

     Slope,m = \frac{y_2 -y_1}{x_2 - x_1}

                  = \frac{-3-0}{0--5} = \frac{-3}{5}

Step 2 : Find the equation

      (y - y_ 1) = m( x - x_1)\\\\( y - 0) = \frac{-3}{5} (x --5) \\\\y = -\frac{3}{5}( x  + 5 ) \\\\y = -\frac{3}{5}x  - 3
