Step-by-step explanation:

do 4x+3x+6=90 combine like terms 7x+6=90 subtract 6 from both sides 7x=84

divide both sides by 7 x=12

Since the angles are complementary, and that is a right angle, it is equal to 90°. So, we know that 4x+3x+6=90.

So, solve this for x. Combine like terms. The problem should now look like: 7x+6=90. Now, we need to isolate the x. Subtract 6 from 6, and subtract 6 from 90. This is because we must move the 6 to the other side of the problem to find x. Whatever we do on one side of the problem, we must do on the other. The problem should now look like 7x=84. Now, isolate the variable by dividing 7x by 7. Again, you must do the same thing to both sides of the problem. So, you must also divide 84 by 7.

The answer is x=12.

Write y =1/8 x + 7 In standard form using integers

bagirrra123 [75]

The equation is y = 1/8x + 7

Standard form equation is Ax + By = C, where A > = 0.

First eliminate the fractions by multiplying the equation by 8

8y = x + 56

Subtract x from each side

-x + 8y = 56

SInce x coeficient can't be negative multiply the equation by negative one.

You have quarters and dimes that total $2.80. your friend says it is possible that the number of quarters is 8 more than the num

ss7ja [257]

To answer this question, you need to know that a quarter is worth $0.25 and dimes worth $0.10. In this case, the total number of money that made from quarters and dimes is $2.80
With Q=quarter and D=dime, then the equation should be:
2.80= 0.25 Q + 0.10 D

The condition that needs to be fulfilled in this case is that the quarter should be 8 more than dimes. Then you need to find out the highest possible number of the quarter and lowest possible number of the dimes.
If you divide 2.8 with 0.25 you will found it will be 11.2 but 11 quarter will result with 0.05 value which you cannot remove, so the highest possible of the quarter should be 10.
If the highest possible of the quarter is 10, then the lowest possible of dimes should be:
2.8= 0.25(10) + 0.10D
0.10D= 0.3
D=3

Since 10-3 is 7, then it is not possible for the quarter to be 8 more than the dimes.
