Share 54 pounds in the ratio 5:4

1 answer:

7 0

In this item, we are asked to split the numerical value which is 54 pounds such that the ratio of the numbers will be 5:4.
To answer, let 5x be the first number and 4x be the second number. With the given scenario, the equation that would best represent the given will be,
54 = 5x + 4x
The value of x is 6 giving us the values of 5x and 4x as 30 and 24, respectively.

Hence, the split will be 30 and 24.

The diagram shows a circle, centre O.<br> Work out the value of a. <br> BCO=41 degrees

sattari [20]

Answer:

a = 49°

Step-by-step explanation:

OB = OC ( both radii of the circle ), thus

Δ BOC is isosceles and the base angles are congruent, that is

∠ OBC = ∠ OCB = 41° , so

∠ BOC = 180° - (2 × 41)° = 180° - 82° = 98°

The angle on the circumference BAC is half the angle at the centre for angles subtended on the same arc , thus

a = 0.5 × 98° = 49°
