Answer:

smaller piece is 65cm

larger piece is 115cm

Step-by-step explanation:

let 's' = smaller piece

let '180-s' = larger piece

3(180-s) = 85 + 4s

540 - 3s = 85 + 4s

540 = 85 + 7s

455 = 7s

s = 455/7 which is 65cm

larger piece = 180-65 or 115cm

The supplement of an angle is 50 less than 3 times its complement, find the measure of the angle
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

20^{\circ}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two angles are supplements of one another if their sum is 180^{\circ}.

Two angles are complements of one another if their sum is 90^{\circ}.

Let x^{\circ} be the measure of the angle in question.

The supplement of this angle would be (180 - x)^{\circ}.

The complement of this angle would be (90 - x)^{\circ}.

According to the question:

(180 - x) + 50 = 3\, (90 - x).

Solve this equation for x:

x = 20.

Thus, this angle would measure should 20^{\circ}.

The supplement of this angle would measure (180 - 20)^{\circ} = 160^{\circ}. The complement of this angle would measure (90 - 20)^{\circ} = 70^{\circ}.

Three times the complement of this angle would be 3 \times 70^{\circ} = 210^{\circ}, which is indeed 50^{\circ} greater than the supplement of this angle.

Answer:

First option: 10 - (1) = 9

Second option: 10 - 5 + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(10 -5) -4 = 5 - 4 = 1

Equivalent equation: 10 - 5 - 4 = 1

10 - (5-4) = there would be 2 ways to do this, you can either solve the equation in the bracket first or break it out. Because the sign before the bracket is minus so when you break it out, the minus sign in the bracket would become -- or equal to +

First option: 10 - (1) = 9

Second option: 10 - 5 + 4 = 5 + 4 = 9
