15+25 /2.
40 /2
Mid segment equals 20
Answer:
I don't understand the instructions, but I'll answer the question in the picture.
The angle next to 52 is vertical to y, so, 90-52=y.
Thus, y=38
Try breaking these into sections.
Twice: 2 times
The sum of: add
A number: choose a variable, like x
---Thus "the sum of a number and 4" becomes "add x and 4" which, mathematically, is "x+4"
-----Continuing to put it all together, "Twice the sum of a number and four" becomes "2 times (x+4)" which, mathematically, is "2(x+4)"
Is: equals
-------"Twice the sum of a number and four is" becomes "2(x+4)="
23 less than: subtract 23. This one tends to trick people; "23 less than" will become "__ - 23", NOT "23 - __"
three times the number: 3 times x
---"23 less than three times the number" becomes "subtract 23 from 3 times x" which, mathematically, is "3x-23"
-------So the final phrase: 2(x+4)=3x-23"
To find arc WY:
360 - 156 - 86
arc WY = 118
To find angle WXY
118 / 2 = 59 degrees
I know step 5 is (x-2)(x+2)(x+1)
But I don't know what step 4 is.
Im stuck.
