Answer:

The measure of the angles:

24° and 66°

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles sum 90°

then:

(3x + 3) + (10x-4) = 90

3x + 10x + 3 - 4 = 90

13x - 1 = 90

13x = 90+1

13x = 91

x = 91/13

x = 7°

then:

angle 1:

3x+3 = 3*7 + 3 = 21+3 = 24°

angle 2

10x - 4 = 10*7 - 4 = 70 - 4 = 66°

Check:

66° + 24° = 90°

The midpoint of is point P at (−6,−2). If point E is at (2,−4), what are the coordinates of point F?

ipn [44]

Point F = (-2,-3); Apply the midpoint formula, (x1+x2/2),(y1+y2/2) = (x,y).

-6+2/2

-4/2

x=-2

-2+(-4)/2

-6/2

y=-3

(x,y)=(-2,-3)

at right is graph of this situation predict how the line would change to present the average cost of gas in dicember of 2005 whe

Lina20 [59]

The average cost represents the slope of the line of the graph.
Increasing the slope of the graph increases the steepness of the line.
Therefore, increasing the average cost of gas from $1.50 to $2.20 will increases the steepness of the line. (i.e. the line becomes closer to the vertical line).
