A = dog food, b = cat food
1a + 2b= 25
2a + 1b = 26
simultaneous equations!!

2a + 4b=50
2a + 1b = 26
subtract from each other

2a - 2a = 0
4b - 1b = 3b
50 - 26 = 24
3b = 24
b = $8

then sub into equation
1a + 2(8) = 25
25-16 = 9

a= $9

Charlie was carrying around the steps to solve Square root of 6x plus 4 = 8. On his way through the Math Factory, Charlie droppe

The answer is
<span>F. Square both sides
</span><span>D. Subtract 4 from both sides
</span><span>C. Divide by 6 from both sides
</span>
√(6x +4) = 8

Square both sides:
(√(6x +4))² = 8²
6x + 4 = 64

Subtract 4 from both sides
6x + 4 - 4 = 64 - 4
6x = 60

Divide by 6 from both sides
6x/6 = 60/6
x = 10

Angle B measures 60°. What is the measure of the angle that is complementary to angle B?
vodomira [7]
Complementary angles add up to 90.
Say the complementary angle is A. 
Angle A + Angle B = 90
Angle A + 60 = 90
Angle A = 30 degrees

Hope this helps :)

If x=8 what is the value of x(17-x)?
Svetlanka [38]
The highest power is 2.
Explanation:
Because x has a maximum power of 2, there will be 2 answers. if it were 3, there could be up to 3 answers, etc.
While solving this problem, you gather all terms on one side so the equation looks like
x
2
−
81
+
17
=
0
x
2
−
64
=
0
then factor
(
x
−
8
)
(
x
+
8
)
=
0
then, because any number times 0 equals 0, we know that one of the two parts in the parenthesis must be equal to 0, so
x
−
8
=
0
or
x
+
8
=
0
and so the two answers
x
=
8
,
−
8
come to be.
