sp2606 [1]

Answer:

If he maintains the same rate he'll hit 180 home runs over the next three seasons.

Step-by-step explanation:

If he maintains the same rate of homeruns per season as he did in 1987 the number of home runs he'll hit over the next three seasons is the rate from 1987 multiplied by 3. We have:

number of home runs = 3*rate

number of home runs = 3*60

number of home runs = 180

If he maintains the same rate he'll hit 180 home runs over the next three seasons.

Members of the theater club sold tickets for the spring

DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

C. 125 + 120x = 180 + 110x

t = $5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

A.125t + 120 = 180t + 110

B. 120t + 110t = 125 + 180

C. 125 + 120t = 180 + 110t

D. 125 - 120t = 180 - 110t

Friday

$125 + 120t

Saturday

110t + 180

equate Friday and Saturday

125 + 120t = 110t + 180

Collect like terms

125 - 180 = 110t - 120t

-55 = -10t

Divide both sides by -10

t = -55 / -10

= 5.5

t = $5.5

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Complementary means that the two angles sum to 90 degrees.

So based on the problem, let:

1st angle=5x+6

2nd angle=x

Now create an equation.

x+5x+6=90

6x=84

x=14

5x+6=76
