Answer: more than 1/2
Step-by-step explanation: 1/2 equals 2/4 so 3/4 is more.
X:2+(105-275:11):4=28
X:2+(105-25):4=28
X:2+80:4=28
X:2+20=28
X:2=28-20
X:2=8
X=8×2
X=16
Lets plug in the answer choices and see which one works
A. x = -6
| -6 | < 3
6 < 3
False, so A is not the answer
B. x = -5
| -5 | < 3
5 < 3
False, so B isn't the answer
C. x = -1
| -1 | < 3
1 < 3
True, so C is the answer.
But lets just check D to make sure C is the answer.
D. x = 2
| 2 | < 3
2 < 3
False, so D isn't the answer either.
C is your answer :)
Ugh, more algebra pretending to be geometry. Why?
This is a pretty awful instance of the genre, with no units on the constant 16, assumed to be degrees.
The total arc measure in a circle is 360 degrees. Geometry part over.
3m + 16 + 2m + 3m = 360
8m = 344
m = 344/8 = 43
Arc measures:
Arc 3m+16 = 3(43)+16 = 145°. The angle subtended by that arc is half that, 145/2=72.5°
Arc 2m=2(43)=86°. The angle subtended is half that, 43°
Arc 3m=3(43)=129°. The angle subtended is half that, 64.5°
