Answer:

c(t) =-18t +212

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

(t_1,c_1) = (4,140)

(t_2,c_2) = (9,50)

Required

Determine the equation

First, we calculate the slope (m)

m = \frac{c_2 - c_1}{t_2 - t_1}

m = \frac{50 - 140}{9-4}

m = \frac{-90}{5}

m = -18

The equation is then calculated as:

c =m(t - t_1) + c_1

c =-18*(t - 4) + 140

c =-18t +72 + 140

c =-18t +212

Hence, the function is:

c(t) =-18t +212

The supplement of an angle is 3 times the complement of an angle.
-Dominant- [34]
Let’s says that x is the measure of the angle. X and it’s supplement are equal to 180. X and it’s complement are equal to 90. The supplement is s and the complement is c. S is times c which is the same as 3c.

3c + x = 180

C+x = 90
X = 90 - c

3c + 90 - c = 180
2c = 90
C = 45

The complement of. 45 degree angle is 45 degrees.

The angle is 45 degrees.

142 is 120% of what number
forsale [732]
142=120% of x
120% of x= 1.2x
142=1.2x
142/1.2 = 1.2x/1.2
x= 118.33

The unknown number should be 118.33, rounded to 118 or so.
