Answer:

  D. m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a multiple-choice question that can be answered simply by considering the reasonableness of the answers.

__

The expression for ∠a suggests it will be by far the largest of the angles, eliminating choices A and C.

No angle in a triangle is more than 180°, eliminating choice B.

The expression for ∠b suggests it will have a measure less than 31°. This confirms choice D as the correct one.

  m∠a=139°, m∠b=23°, m∠c=18°

__

If you want to work the problem, you use the fact that the sum of angles is 180°

  ∠a +∠b +∠c = 180°

  (40x -21)° +(31 -2x)° +(x +14)° = 180°

  39x +24 = 180 . . . . . . . . . divide by °, collect terms

  39x = 156 . . . . . . . . . . subtract 24

  x = 4 . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 39

Then the measures of the angles are ...

  ∠a = (40×4 -21)° = 139°

  ∠b = (31 -2×4)° = 23°

  ∠c = (4 +14)° = 18°

) Asuka travels at an average speed of 50 mph for 20 miles.
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer: 41.86 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Distance = Speed*Time to find the two missing values with the data that is provided for those two cases [<em>in brackets</em>].

MPH MILES     HOURS

 50            20      [<em>0.4]</em>

 [<em>40</em>]    <u>70</u>      <u>1.75</u>

Totals   90 miles   2.15 hours

Average = 90 miles/2.15 hours

     41.86 mph

Circle A has center of (2, 8), and a radius of 2 and circle B has a center of (5, 4), and a radius of 10. What steps will help s
Viktor [21]

Answer:

1. Translate circle A using the rule (x − 3, y + 4).

4. Dilate circle A by a scale factor of 5

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

All circles are similar figures

step 1

Translate the center of circle A to the center of circle B

we have

A(2,8) -----> B(5,4)

so

The rule of the translation is

(x,y) ----> (x+a,y+b)

(2,8) ----> (2+a,8+b)

2+a=5 ----> a=5-2=3

8+b=4 ---> b=4-8=-4

therefore

The rule of the translation is

(x,y) ----> (x+3,y-4)

step 2

Divide the radius of circle B to the radius of circle A to find out the scale factor

10/2=5

so

Multiply the radius of circle A by the scale factor to obtain the radius of circle B

therefore

Dilate circle A by a scale factor of 5
