The equations y=55x+50 and y=65x represents Rick's and Betty's trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Head start of Rick = 50 miles

Speed of Rick = 55 mph

Let,

x be the number of hours

y be the total miles

Distance covered by Rick in x hours = Speed * Time + Head start

y = 55x + 50

Speed of Betty = 65 mph

Total miles = Speed*Time

y=65x

The equations y=55x+50 and y=65x represents Rick's and Betty's trip.

Cherie is jogging around a circular track. She
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

Measure of minor angle JOG is 95.5^{\circ}

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a circular track of radius 120 yards. Assume that Cherie starts from point J and runs 200 yards up to point G.  

\therefore m JG = 200 yards, JO=120 yards.  

Now the measure of minor arc is same as measure of central angle. Therefore minor angle is the central angle \angle JOG = \theta.

To calculate the central angle, use the arc length formula as follows.  

Arc\:Length\left(s\right) = r\:\theta  

Where \theta is measured in radian.

Substituting the value,

200=120\:\theta  

Dividing both side by 120,

\dfrac{200}{120}=\theta  

Reducing the fraction into lowest form by dividing numerator and denominator by 40.

\therefore \dfrac{5}{3}=\theta  

Therefore value of central angle is \angle JOG = \theta=\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{c}, since angle is in radian

Now convert radian into degree by using following formula,

1^{c}=\left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ}

So multiplying \theta with \left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ} to convert it into degree.

\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right)^{c}=\left(\dfrac{5}{3}\right) \times \left(\dfrac{180}{\pi}\right)^{\circ}

Simplifying,

\therefore \theta = 95.49^{circ}

So to nearest tenth, \angle JOG=95.5^{circ}
