Answer:

  • x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Complementary angles are angles that add up to 90°.

We have C and D as complementary.

Their sum is:

  • m∠C + m∠D = 90

Substitute values and solve for x:

  • 8x + 5x - 1 = 90
  • 13x = 90 + 1
  • 13x = 91
  • x = 91/13
  • x = 7

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Complementary angles</u> are two angles that sum up to 90°. In this case, we are given that ∠C and ∠D are <u>complementary.</u> This means that the sum of ∠C and ∠D is equivalent to 90°.

⇒ ∠C + ∠D = 90°

⇒ 8x + 5x - 1 = 90°                                                          [∠C = 8x; ∠D = 5x - 1]

⇒ 13x - 1 = 90°

⇒ 13x = 90 + 1

⇒ 13x = 91

⇒ 13x/13 = 91/13

⇒ x = 91/13 = 7

How many sets of 7 questions can be chosen from a file of 25 questions?
likoan [24]
If all 25 questions are different,

When order of selection counts:
P(25,7)
=25!/(25-7)!
=15511210043330985984000000/6402373705728000
=2422728000

When order of selection does not count count:
C(25,7)
=25!/(7!*(25-7)!)
=15511210043330985984000000/(6402373705728000*5040)
=480700

Arlecino [84]

Answer: the correct one is C) found in the Philippines and resembling

Step-by-step explanation:

To maintain parallelism, you must list items with equal grammatical structure.

"Found" is just an adjective that modifies the animal, and so is "resembling." Sure, they don't sound the same, but they're both adjectives.
