question:What is the measure of an angle, in degrees, if its supplement is six times its complement?
answer:Let the angle be x degrees. The supplement of the angle is 180-x degrees, and the complement of the angle is 90-x degrees. According to the given information, we have the equation 180-x=6(90-x). Simplifying, we get 180-x=540-6x. Adding 6x to both sides, we get 5x=360. Dividing by 5, we find x=72. Therefore, the measure of the angle is boxed{72} degrees. The answer is: 72
question:f a magician initially has a top hat with 20 red marbles and a top hat with 30 blue marbles, and he randomly removes 3 red marbles and four times as many blue marbles as red marbles (without looking), what is the total number of marbles he has left?
answer:The magician starts with 20 red marbles and 30 blue marbles, so he has a total of 20 + 30 = 50 marbles. He removes 3 red marbles, so he now has 20 - 3 = 17 red marbles left. He also removes four times as many blue marbles as red marbles, which is 4 * 3 = 12 blue marbles. So he now has 30 - 12 = 18 blue marbles left. In total, he has 17 red marbles + 18 blue marbles = 35 marbles left. 35 The answer is: 35
question:The local theater has one ticket window. In how many ways can six people line up to buy a ticket?
answer:There are six options for the first person in line, five options for the second person, four options for the third person, and so on. Therefore, there are 6cdot 5cdot 4cdot 3cdot 2cdot 1 = boxed{720} ways for the six people to line up.The answer is: 720
question:What is the number that satisfies the condition where the square of the number, increased by 85, is equal to the square of the number that is 17 less than the original number?
answer:Let the number be x. The square of the number, increased by 85, is x^2 + 85. The square of the number that is 17 less than the original number is (x - 17)^2. We are given that these two quantities are equal, so we have the equation x^2 + 85 = (x - 17)^2. Expanding the right side gives x^2 + 85 = x^2 - 34x + 289. Simplifying this equation gives 34x = 204. Dividing both sides by 34 gives x = boxed{6}. The answer is: 6
