Answer:

18° and 72°

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle measures are unknown, so they will be represented with the variable, x.  Since, one angle is 4 times the other, this will be represented with 4x.

To find complementary angles, they are added together and equal 90. So let's create an equation.

x + 4x = 90

Now solve for x.

5x = 90

5x/5 = 90/5

x = 18

One angle is 18°.

Now find the second angle.

4x

plugin 18 for x and multiply

4(18) = 72

It would be 8r^{3} because you have to multiply the exponent by each of the numbers exponents. you may not see it but 2 has a 1 as an exponent and so does r. 1 time 3 is 3 for each therefore each number now has an exponent of 3 and we got rid of the outside exponent. now all you have to do is simplify the 2 to the power of 3 which gives you 8 and that is all

Which ordered pale is a solution to the system of equations?
Softa [21]

Answer:

c) (-2, 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

3x - 3y = -9

2x + y = -3

2x + y = -3

-2x       -2x

y = -2x - 3

3x - 3y = -9

y = -2x - 3

3x - 3(-2x - 3) = -9

3x + 6x + 9 = -9

9x + 9 = -9

    - 9    -9

9x = -18

/9     /9

x = -2

y = -2x - 3

y = -2(-2) -3

y = 4 - 3

y = 1

(x, y) --> (-2,1)

Check your answer:

y = -2x - 3

1 = -2(-2) - 3

1 = 4 - 3

1 = 1

This statement is true

Hope this helps!
