You can make an equation with this information using a variable for the number of days and solve for that variable. Here we can use d to represent days.

Ryan can build 4 desks in a day, so you could express his production as 4d.

Larry can build 4 desks in 2 days, so you could say he makes 2 desks in 1 day, expressed as 2d.

If Larry starts work one day before Ryan, he's made an extra 2 desks. To get 32 desks, you need to add together those 2 desks Larry made, however many desks Larry can make, and however many desks Ryan can make:

2 + 4d + 2d = 32.

Then just simplify and solve:

6d = 30
d = 5.

It'll take 5 days for them to make 32 desks. Hope this helps! Please rate this answer as brainliest if you liked it!! thank you!!!

A subtending arc on a circle with a radius of 4.5 centimeters has an arc length of 8π. The measure of the angle subtended by the
dem82 [27]

Answer: 320°

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a circle geometry.

The arc length of the circle is given to be 8πcm and the radius is 4.5cm.

Now the length of an arc of a circle is

Arc length = πr0°/180° or 2πr0°/360°

To find the angle 0° subtend at the center we equate the arc length with the formula and solve for 0°.Now we go

πr0°/180 = 8π, convert to a simple linear equal and solve for the angle.

πr0° = 8π × 180

0°. = 8π × 180

-----------

π × r

= 8 × 180. 8 × 180

-------- or ---------

9/2. 4.5

= 8 × 180 × 2

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

9

= 8 × 20 × 2

= 320°

or 8 × 180/4.5

= 1440/4.5

= 320°
