3x-3 and 4x-6 are complementary angles meaning together they add up to 180°. Set them equal to each other. So you get 3x-3=4x-6 now simplify this. Now you have x=3 and there you have it! If you plug 3 into x in both equations it works! Hope this helps!

Answer:

x=27

Step-by-step explanation:

Same side exterior angles are supplementary when the lines are parallel

3x-3 + 4x-6 = 180

7x -9 =180

Add 9 to each side

7x-9+9 = 180+9

7x = 189

Divide each side by 7

7x/7 = 189/7

x =27

Hi,

Your Question states: If Sarah has 50 Nickles and 20 dimes and Bill has 230 pennies and 5 quarters. Who has the more amount of money?

Answer: Sarah

Explanation: Sarah amount is $2.50, because the amount of nickels is 5 cents and if you multiply 5 times 50 you answer becomes $2.50. 20 dimes and every dime is 10 multiples up to $2.00. 230 is $2.30, and 5 quarters each being 25 cents is $1.25 so your answer is Sarah with 50 nickels.

I Hope I Helped!

Solve x^2+2x+7=0 using the quadratic formula.

Aneli [31]

Answer:

$x=-1\pm \sqrt{6}i$

Step-by-step explanation:

$x=\frac{-b\pm\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-(2)\pm\sqrt{2^2-4(1)(7)}}{2(1)}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{4-28}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-1*24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm\sqrt{-1}\sqrt{24}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm i\sqrt{4*6}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm i\sqrt{4}\sqrt{6}}{2}$

$x=\frac{-2\pm2i\sqrt{6}}{2}$

$x=-1\pm \sqrt{6}i$

Simplify: -|-15| please answer correctly i'll give brainliest and 5-star rating.

Answer:

-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Definition of absolute value:

Distance from zero on a number line.

Imagine a number line with 0 in the middle of it. Now mark the number 3 on it. Also mark the opposite of 3, which is -3. What is the distance from zero to those 2 points? it's 3.

This is exactly like saying |3| = 3 and |-3| = 3

Even if the number inside absolute value is negative, it simplifies to the positive of the same number.

_______________________________

So let's talk about your problem.

-|-15|

> the absolute value simplifies to 15

-|-15| = - 15

So that ends up being your answer.

$-15$
