Answer:

Initial number of people in the line.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, the expression that represents the number of people waiting for ticket in the line after x minutes is,

70-5(x)

Initially,

x = 0 minutes,

Thus, the initial number of people waiting for ticket in the line = 70 - 5(0) = 70

70 represents the starting amount of people in the line. For every minute, their is 5 less patrons. So let's say x equals 4.
70-5(4)
70-20
50
So in 4 minutes there will only be 50 people in the line. I hope this helps explain the entire equation, and the answer is 70 represents the starting amount of people in the line.

30 = 60% of x
x being our variable, we need to figure out what x equals. Use the formula I put in the attachment. Multiply 30 by 60, and then divide the product by 100. That will give you the answer :)

Need some help working these out

Answers:

  • Problem 1)  40 degrees
  • Problem 2) 84 degrees
  • Problem 3) 110 degrees

===============================================

Explanation:

For these questions, we'll use the inscribed angle theorem. This says that the inscribed angle is half the measure of the arc it cuts off. An inscribed angle is one where the vertex of the angle lies on the circle, as problem 1 indicates.

For problem 1, the arc measure is 80 degrees, so half that is 40. This is the measure of the unknown inscribed angle.

Problem 2 will have us work in reverse to double the inscribed angle 42 to get 84.

-------------------

For problem 3, we need to determine angle DEP. But first, we'll need Thales Theorem which is a special case of the inscribed angle theorem. This theorem states that if you have a semicircle, then any inscribed angle will always be 90 degrees. This is a handy way to form 90 degree angles if all you have is a compass and straightedge.

This all means that angle DEF is a right angle and 90 degrees.

So,

(angle DEP) + (angle PEF) = angle DEF

(angle DEP) + (35) = 90

angle DEP = 90 - 35

angle DEP = 55

The inscribed angle DEP cuts off the arc we want to find. Using the inscribed angle theorem, we double 55 to get 110 which is the measure of minor arc FD.

Gre4nikov [31]

Answer: your mom gay ;)

Step-by-step explanation:

4,500 calories a day

If you ate the same amount each day, that means you would eat 3 a day, since 6 divided by 2 is 3.

Find how many calories you would eat each day by multiplying 3 by 1,500

3(1,500)

= 4500
