Answer:

  D.  p ≤ 24

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a piece of paper is 8.5·11 = 93.5 square inches, so the area of the bulletin board is that of ...

  1728/93.5 ≈ 18.48

pieces of paper.

The solution is a number greater than 18, so selection D is the only viable choice.

___

The bulletin board is 24 inches high and 1728/24 = 72 inches wide. If Mrs. Wickowitz hangs the papers "sideways", then 3 of them will cover 25.5 inches vertically, and 7 of them will cover 77 inches horizontally. That's 3·7 = 21 whole sheets of paper. That, too, matches selection D.

Pentagon RSTUV is circumscribed about a circle. What is the value of x if RS = 10, ST = 13, TU = 11, UV = 12, and VR = 12?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The value of x is 7 ⇒ 1st answer

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise a fact in the circle

- The two tangents drawn from a point out side the circle are equal

∵ RSTUV is circumscribed about a circle

∴ Each side of the pentagon is a tangent to the circle

- Look to the attached figure to know how we will solve the problem

- Each tangent divided into two parts

# RS = x + y

∵ RS = 8

∴ x + y = 8 ⇒ (1)

# RV = x + n

∵ RV = 12

∴ x + n = 12 ⇒ (2)

- Subtract (2) from (1)

∴ y - n = -4 ⇒ (3)

# ST = y + z

∵ ST = 12

∴ y + z = 12 ⇒ (4)

# TU = z + m

∵ TU = 15

∴ z + m = 15 ⇒ (5)

- Subtract (5) from (4)

∴ y - m = -3 ⇒ (6)

# UV = m + n

∵ UV = 9

∴ m + n = 9 ⇒ (7)

- Add (6) and (7)

∴ y + n = 6 ⇒ (8)

- Lets solve equation (3) and equation (8) to find y

∵ y - n = -4 ⇒ (3)

∵ y + n = 6 ⇒ (8)

- Add (3) and (8)

∴ 2y = 2 ⇒ divide two sises by 2

∴ y = 1

- Lets substitute the value of y in equation (1)

∵ x + y = 8 ⇒ (1)

∵ y = 1

∴ x + 1 = 8 ⇒ subtract (1) from both sides

∴ x = 7

* The value of x is 7
