It can be done with 2 arcs. In the attached, I started with diameter AD, then drew arcs at B and C of the same radius as the circle from a center at A. Triangle BCD is the inscribed equilateral triangle.

Perhaps a more usual method would be to start at D, draw an arc at E, then from there at B. Resetting the compass to have radius, DB, a third arc can be drawn at C using either B or D as the center. This method would give you
.. selection A: 3 arcs

If you didn't want to reset the compass, you could draw two more arcs, say from B to A, then from A to C. This method would give you
.. selection B: 4 arcs.

zvonat [6]

Answer:

(b), (d) and (e)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$p(t) = 1 * e^t$

See attachment for $y = p(t)$

Required

Select true statements from the given options

(a) $\ln(30)$ = days the bacteria reaches 30000

We have:

$p(t) = 1 * e^t$

In this case:

$t = \ln(30)$ and $p(t) = 30000$

So, we have:

$30000 = 1 * e^{\ln(30)}$

$30000 = e^{\ln(30)}$

Using a calculator, we have:

$e^{\ln(30)} = 30$

So:

$30000 = 30$

The above equation is false.

(a) is not true

(b) The graph shows that $\ln(20) \approx 3$

We have:

$p(t) = 1 * e^t$

Let t = 3

So;

$p(3) = 1 * e^3$

From the graph, $p(3) = 20$

So:

$20 = 1 * e^3$

$20 = e^3$

Take natural logarithm of both sides

$\ln(20) = \ln(e^3)$

This gives:

$\ln(20) = 3$

(b) is true

(c) $\ln(t) = y$ is the logarithm form of $y = e^t$

We have:

$y = e^t$

Take natural logarithm of both sides

$\ln(y) = \ln(e^t)$

This gives:

$\ln(y) = t$

$\ln(y) = t$ $\ne$ $\ln(t) = y$

(c) is false

(d) $e^4 > 50$ and $\ln(50) < 4$

From the graph, we have:

$e^4 = 54$ --- rough readings

This implies that:

$e^4 > 50$ is true

Because $54 > 50$

Take natural logarithm of both sides

$\ln(54) > \ln(50)$

Rewrite as:

$\ln(50) < \ln(54)$

We have:

$e^4 = 54$

Take natural logarithm of both sides

$\ln(e^4) = \ln(54)$

$4 = \ln(54)$

$\ln(54) = 4$

Substitute $\ln(54) = 4$ in $\ln(50) < \ln(54)$

$\ln(50) < 4$

(d) is true

(e) The graph shows that $10 \approx \ln(2.3)$

We have:

$p(t) = 1 * e^t$

Let t = 2.3

So;

$p(2.3) = 1 * e^{2.3}$

From the graph,

$p(2.3) = 10$ ---- rough readings

So:

$10 = 1 * e^{2.3}$

$10 = e^{2.3}$

Take natural logarithm of both sides

$\ln(10) = \ln(e^{2.3})$

This gives:

$\ln(10) = 2.3$

(e) is true

In the diagram below, O is circumscribed about quadrilateral DEFG. What is

Nimfa-mama [501]

Since O is circumscribed about quadrilateral DEFG, the value of x is equal to: D. 68°.

<h3>What is a supplementary angle?</h3>

A supplementary angle can be defined as two (2) angles or arc whose sum is always equal to 180 degrees. Mathematically, a supplementary angle can be calculated as follows:

Q + R = 180°.

In Geometry, the opposite angles of any cyclic quadrilateral that is inscribed inside a circle always form a supplementary angle. Thus, we would determine the value of x by using the mathematical expression above:

x + 112° = 180°

x = 180° - 112°

x = 68°
