23 decreased by the product of 44 and an unknown number is 199. What is the value of the unknown number?

1 answer:

6 0

Go step by step

23 is decreased by : 23 -

The product of 44 and an unknown number

Let x represent the unknown number
And Product means multiplication

The product of 44 and an unknown number : 44x

Equals 199 : = 199

Now, put that all together

23 - 44x = 199

Now, begin to solve

Subtract 23 on both sides of the equation

-44x = 176

Divide both sides of the equation by -44 to isolate x

x = -4

The unknown number is -4

Vikentia [17]

His total load is 4*125 + 2*75 + 2*50, which is 750

now, is that 750 95% of 800?

well 95% of anything is 95/100 * anything

thus, 95% of 800 is 95/100 * 800 or 0.95 * 800

now, is that less than more or equals to 750? if it's, then he's golden, because his load is less or equals to 95% of 800, if not, then he needs to cut down some

What is the measure of

Sever21 [200]

Answer:

The measure of ∠G is 59°

Step-by-step explanation:

When two secants, intersect at a point outside a circle then the measure of the angle formed between them is one-half the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.

In the given figure

∵ GT is a secant that intersects the circle at points H and T

∵ GE is a secant that intersects the circle at points F and E

∴ The intercepted arcs are HF and TE

∵ GT ∩ GE at G

∵ Point G is outside the circle

→ By using the rule above

∴ m∠G = $\frac{1}{2}$ (m arc TE - m arc HF)

∵ m arc TE = 175°

∵ m arc HF = 57°

→ Substitute them in the rule above

∵ m∠G = $\frac{1}{2}$ (175 - 57) = $\frac{1}{2}$ (118)

∴ m∠G = 59

∴ The measure of ∠G is 59°
