Answer: Angle 1 = 27
              Angle 1 = 63

Remember: complementary angles always add up to 90 degrees.

Set up your equation.
3x + 7x = 90          Combine like terms
10x = 90                Divide by 10 to both sides
x = 9                      Answer!

Substitute in (9) for x to find the measurements of the two angles.
   Angle 1: 3x
                 3(9)
                 27

   Angle 2: 7x
                  7(9)
                  63

You can also check your work.
27 + 63 = 90

Name the property: <br> 7 + (4 + 4) = (7 + 4) + 4
netineya [11]

The answer you are looking for is associative property of addition.

In associative property, no matter where the parenthesis are, a + (b + c) is going to be equal to (a + b) + c. Since the parenthesis follow the equation  a + (b + c) = (a + b) + c, you can assume you are using the associative property. Lastly, add "of addition" to associative property, since you are using addition, not multiplication.

I hope this helps!

(2x)^-1<br> how do u put this into a positive exponent and a fraction?<br> 20 points
Naddika [18.5K]

For this case we have that by definition of power properties it is fulfilled that:

a ^ {-1} = \frac {1} {a ^ 1} = \frac {1} {a}

Then, if we have the following expression:

(2x)^{ -1}

Applying the property, we can rewrite the expression as:

\frac {1} {(2x) ^ 1} = \frac {1} {2x}

Answer:

\frac {1} {2x}
