Answer:
(8x - 9)˚ = 63˚
and
(3x)˚ = 27˚
Step-by-step explanation:
heeyyyyy remember me?
Complementary angles are angles that equal 90˚, so we can create an equation:
(8x - 9) + 3x = 90
Remove the paranthesis
8x - 9 + 3x = 90
Add 9 to both sides
8x + 3x = 99
Simplify
11x = 99
divide both sides by 11
x = 9
So if we plug in x for 9 we get:
8x - 9
8(9) - 9
72 - 9
63
3x
3(9)
27
So
(8x - 9)˚ = 63˚
and
(3x)˚ = 27˚
