Answer:Complementary angles are two angles whose sum is 90 degrees.

Let x represent one of the angles.

The other angle which is 84.2 degrees less would be x - 84.2.

Using this, we can write an equation.

x + (x-84.2) = 90.

Combine like terms: 2x - 84.2 = 90

Add 84.2 to both sides of the equation.

2x = 174.2

Divide by 2: x = 87.1

and x - 84.2 would equal 2.9. to check: does 87.1 + 2.9 = 90? yes.

Answer:

The test statistics is $z = -1$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The sample size is n = 100

The null hypothesis is $H_o : \mu = \$30000$

The alternative hypothesis is $H_a : \mu < \$ 30000$

The sample mean is $\= x = \$29,750$

The standard deviation is $\sigma = \$2,500$

The level of significance is $\alpha =0.05$

Generally the test statistics is mathematically represented as

$z = \frac{\= x - \mu }{ \frac{ \sigma}{ \sqrt{n} } }$

=> $z = \frac{29750 - 30000 }{ \frac{ 2500}{ \sqrt{100} } }$

=> $z = -1$
