Complementary angles = 90°
x= angle 1
(90-x)= angle 2
Subtract the two angles to get the difference between them (18°).
(90-x) - x= 18
combine like terms
90 - 2x= 18
subtract 90 from both sides
-2x= -72
divide both sides by -2
x= 36° angle 1
Substitute answer in to find angle 2:
=90 - x
=90 - 36
=54° angle 2
Hope this helps! :)
The person above me is correct
Answer:
Amy is (21.6 - 14.4) 7.2 km/hr faster than Bill.
Distance = speed / time
Amy's speed
40 minutes = 40/60 = 2/3 hours
14.4 = speed / 2/3
Speed = 14.4 * 3/2 = 21.6 km/ hr
Bill speed
60 minutes = 1 hour
Speed = 14.4 km / hr.
I would start like this: which year was the seventh AMC 8??
the first was in 1985
The second: 1986
3: 1987
4: 1988
5: 1989
6: 1990
7: 1991
so seventh AMC 8 took place in 1991.
she was then 12, so we can subtract this age from 1991:
1991-12=1979
so she was born in 1979!
36 + x would be your answer. When something is 'increased', you are adding to it. Such as saying 47 increased by -5x is the same as 47 + (-5x).
If this wasn't the answer you were looking for, let me know. For now, I hope this helped:)
