Answer:

First angle: 60°

Second angle: 30°

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two angles be signified by the variables x & y.

Let the first angle = x, and the second angle = y.

It is given that:

"The measure[ments] of the complementary angles...": x + y = 90°

"The measure of the first angle is 30 greater than the measure of the second angle": x = y + 30°

Use the system of equations. Plug in y + 30 for x in the first equation:

(y + 30) + y = 90

Combine like terms:

(y + y) + 30 = 90

2y + 30 = 90

Isolate the variable, y. Note the equal sign, what you do to one side, you do to the other. Do the opposite of PEMDAS. First, subtract 30 from both sides of the equation:

2y + 30 (-30) = 90 (-30)

2y = 90 - 30

2y = 60

Next, divide 2 from both sides of the equation:

(2y)/2 = (60)/2

y = 60/2

y = 30°

Plug in 30 for y in one of the equations:

x = y + 30

x = (30) + 30

x = 60°

Your answers:

First angle: 60°

Second angle: 30°

Ernesto Montenegro purchase a twelve 1000 Bonds having a quoted price of 100.75 he have to pay a 6% brokerage fee of the same pr
LenKa [72]

Answer: $106.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the bond price is $100.75

With a 6% brokerage fee

Find the total cost to the nearest cent

First, we calculate the 6% brokerage fee= 6/100 × 100.75

= 0.06 x 100.75

= 6.045

Total cost therefore is the sum of brokerage fee and the cost of bond

= $6.045 + $100.75

= $106.795

To the nearest cent = $106.8
