7 0

Step-by-step explanation:

given,

the complete angle is complementry angle which is 90°

let the first angle be x and second angle be 7x ( as second angle is 7 times more than first angle )

now,

→ x + 7x = 90

→ 8x = 90

→ x = 90/8 = 11.25

therefore

1st angle = x = 11.25°

2nd angle = 7x = 7 × 11.25 = 78.75°

hope this answer helps you dear take care and may u have a great day ahead!

How many solutions does the system of equations below have?

soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

One solution

Step-by-step explanation:

5x + y = 8

15x + 15y = 14

Lets solve using substitution, first we need to turn "5x + = 8" into "y = mx + b" or slope - intercept form

So we solve for "y" in the equation "5x + y = 8"

5x + y = 8

Step 1: Subtract 5x from both sides.

5x + y − 5x = 8 − 5x

Step 2: 5x subtracted by 5x cancel out and "8 - 5x" are flipped

y = −5x + 8

Now we can solve using substitution:

We substitute "-5x + 8" into the equation "15x + 15y = 14" for y

So it would look like this:

15x + 15(-5x + 8) = 14

Now we just solve for x

15x + (15)(−5x) + (15)(8) = 14(Distribute)

15x − 75x + 120 = 14

(15x − 75x) + (120) = 14(Combine Like Terms)

−60x + 120 = 14

Step 2: Subtract 120 from both sides.

−60x + 120 − 120 = 14 − 120

−60x = −106

Divide both sides by -60

$\dfrac{ -60x }{ -60 } = \dfrac{ -106 }{ -60 }$

Simplify

$x = \dfrac{ 53 }{ 30 }$

Now that we know the value of x, we can solve for y in any of the equations, but let's use the equation "y = −5x + 8"

$\mathrm{So\:it\:would\:look\:like\:this:\ y = -5 \left( \dfrac{ 53 }{ 30 } \right) +8}$

$\mathrm{Now\:lets\:solve\:for\:"y"\:then}$

$y = -5 \left( \dfrac{ 53 }{ 30 } \right) +8}$

$\mathrm{Express\: -5 \times \dfrac{ 53 }{ 30 }\:as\:a\:single\:fraction}$

$y = \dfrac{ -5 \times 53 }{ 30 } +8$

$\mathrm{Multiply\:-5 \:and\:53\:to\:get\:-265 }$

$y = \dfrac{ -265 }{ 30 } +8$

$\mathrm{Simplify\: \dfrac{ -265 }{ 30 } \:,by\:dividing\:both\:-265\:and\:30\:by\:5} }$

$y = \dfrac{ -265 \div 5 }{ 30 \div 5 } +8$

$\mathrm{Simplify}$

$y = - \dfrac{ 53 }{ 6 } +8$

$\mathrm{Turn\:8\:into\:a\:fraction\:that\:has\:the\:same\:denominator\:as\: - \dfrac{ 53 }{ 6 }}$

$\mathrm{Multiples\:of\:1: \:1,2,3,4,5,6}$

$\mathrm{Multiples\:of\:6: \:6,12,18,24,30,36,42,48}$

$\mathrm{Convert\:8\:to\:fraction\:\dfrac{ 48 }{ 6 }}$

$y = - \dfrac{ 53 }{ 6 } + \dfrac{ 48 }{ 6 }$

$\mathrm{Since\: - \dfrac{ 53 }{ 6 }\:have\:the\:same\:denominator\:,\:add\:them\:by\:adding\:their\:numerators}$

$y = \dfrac{ -53+48 }{ 6 }$

$\mathrm{Add\: -53 \: and\: 48\: to\: get\: -5}$

$y = - \dfrac{ 5 }{ 6 }$

$\mathrm{The\:solution\:is\:the\:ordered\:pair\:(\dfrac{ 53 }{ 30 }, - \dfrac{ 5 }{ 6 })}$

So there is only one solution to the equation.

find two positive even consecutive integers such that a square of the smaller integer is 10 more than the larger integer

nalin [4]

Answer:

the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the smaller integer be s; then s^2 = (s + 2) + 10.

Simplifying, s^2 - s - 2 - 10 = 0, or

s^2 - s - 12 = 0.

Solve this by factoring: (s - 4)(s + 3) = 0.

Then s = 4 and s = -3.

If the first even integer is 4, the next is 6. We omit s = -3 because it's not even.

The smaller integer is 4. Does this satisfy the equation s^2 = (s + 2) + 10?

4^2 = (4 + 2) + 10 True or False?

16 = 6 + 10 = 16.

True.

So the two positive consecutive integers are 4 and 6.
