The value of x according to the described angles is; 8

<h3>Complementary angles</h3>

If two angles A and B are complementary, it follows that A + B = 90 and Cos A = Sin B.

From the statement above, it follows that;

4x + 15 = 7x -9

Collect like terms;

15 +9 = 7x - 4x

3x = 24

Divide both sides by 3;

x = 24/3 = 8.

Solve for v.<br> -8v+3(v-3) = 16

puteri [66]

Hi there! :)

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{v = -5}$

-8v + 3(v - 3) = 16

Distribute the 3:

-8v + 3(v) + 3(-3) = 16

-8v + 3v - 9 = 16

Combine like terms and simplify:

-5v - 9 = 16

-5v - 9 + 9 = 16 + 9

-5v = 25

Divide both sides by -5:

-5v/(-5) = 25/(-5)

v = -5.

Suppose that F(x) = x^3 and G(X) = -3x^3. Which statement best compares the

Alik [6]

Answer:

D. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) flipped over the y-axis and

stretched vertically.

Step-by-step explanation:

since there is a negative, there must be a reflection. the reflection is over the y-axis because it is outside the x-value (-F(x) not F(-x))

the same goes for the vertical stretch. we know it is a vertical stretch because the 3 is outside the x-value (3F(x) not F(3x))

5x + 10 > 35<br> How do you work this out?

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

$x > 5$

Step-by -step explanation:

Solving inequalities is similar to solving equations.

$5x + 10 > 35$

Subtract 10 from both sides.

$5x > 25$

Divide by 5 from both sides to isolate the x.

$x > 5$
