Answer:

x=24

Step-by-step explanation:

If angles are complementary, that means they will add to 90 degrees. We know that ∠A and ∠B are complementary, therefore,

∠A+∠B=90

∠A is equal to x-6, and ∠B is equal to 3x.

x-6+3x=90

Combine like terms (all the terms with variables)

(x+3x)-6=90

4x-6=90

To solve the equation, we want to find out what x is. In order to do this, we have to get x by itself. Perform the opposite of what is being done to the equation. Keep in mind, everything done to one side, has to be done to the other.

6 is being subtracted from 4x. The opposite of subtraction is addition, so add 6 to both sides.

4x-6+6=90+6

4x=90+6

4x=96

x is being multiplied by 4. The opposite of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by 4.

4x/4=96/4

x=96/4

x=24

Answer:

x = 21°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles have a sum of 90°. If ∠A + ∠B = 90°, we know that

x - 6° + 3x = 90°.

4x - 6° = 90°

4x = 96°

x = 24°

Hope this helps!

The type of function that best models the data in the table is the quadratic function

<h3>How to determine the function type?</h3>

The table of values is represented as:

x: 4 6 8 10 12

y : 118 142 150 142 118

From the above table, we can see that:

  • The y values increase from 118 to 150
  • The y values then decrease to 118
  • The x values increase

This is only possible in a quadratic function

Hence, the type of function that best models the data in the table is the quadratic function
