Answer:

Henry has $19, Dan has $57, and Melissa has $11

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent how much money Henry has

Since Dan has 3 times what Henry has, his amount is 3x

Since Melissa has $8 less than Henry, her amount is x - 8

Create an equation that sets these 3 values equal to 87, then solve for x

(x) + (3x) + (x - 8) = 87

5x - 8 = 87

5x = 95

x = 19

So, Henry has $19

Find how much Dan has by multiplying 19 by 3

19(3)

= 57

Find how much Melissa has by subtracting 8 from 19

19 - 8

= 11

So, Henry has $19, Dan has $57, and Melissa has $11

If ∠A and ∠B are complementary, find the value of x given that ∠A=3x-2 and ∠B=x+12
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

x=20 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

complementary means the angles equal 90 degrees

so ∠A+∠B=90 degrees

∠A=3x-2 and ∠B=x+12

so subsitute

(3x-2)+(x+12)=90

then solve for x

4x+10=90
