Answer:

the answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

by doing the distributive property

multiplay the -3 with the numbers in the parenthesis (2x-5) and the same with -2 and (4x +3)

the result will be -6x+15-8x-6 now you need to combine like terms

-6x-8x 15-6

-14x+9

An angle measures 79.4 degrees more than the measure of its supplementary angle. What is the measure of each angle?

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

The angles are: 50.3 and 129.7

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of supplementary angles is 180°.

Let x be one angle then the other angle will be x+79.4

Using the supplementary angle sum

$x+x+79.4 = 180\\2x+79.4 = 180\\2x = 180-79.4\\2x = 100.6\\\frac{2x}{2} = \frac{100.6}{2}\\x = 50.3$

For the measurement of 2nd angle

x+79.4 => 50.3+79.4 => 129.7

Hence,

The angles are: 50.3 and 129.7

The hypotenuse of a 45-45-90 triangle has a length of 10 units. what is the length of one of its legs?

Blizzard [7]

the length of a leg on a 45-45-90 triangle given the hypotenuse is half the length of the hypotenuse times sqrt(2)

hypotenuse = 10

10/2 =5

so the answer should be 5sqrt(2), which I don't see as a choice
