Answer:

a) x = 30°

b) mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

Question:

The complete question as found on Chegg website:

In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs

intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:

mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3

(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x

and find the value of x.

(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.

mRS =

mST =

MTU

MUR =

Step-by-step explanation:

Find attached the diagram related to the question

mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3

Since mRS = x

Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:

mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x

mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x

The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)

mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°

x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360

12x = 360

x = 360/12

x = 30°

b) The measure of angle

mRS = x = 30°

mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°

mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°

It’s 45, since the bottom corner is 90, the top one is 45 bc if you turn it into a rectangle it has to be 90 also and half of that is 45, 90 plus 45 is 135 and all the angle of a right triangle make 180, so 180 minus 135 is 45

1/4x + 2/3y = 5 1/2x + 3/2y = 11 which of the following expressions represents the multiplicative property of equality
Mandarinka [93]

B

Because

(1/4x+2/3y=5)12=3x+8y=60

And

(1/2x+3/2y=11)3=x+3y=22

Suppose you buy a CD for $500 that earns 2.5% APR and is compounded quarterly. The CD matures in 3 years. How much will this CD
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

A=$538.82

Step-by-step explanation:

We're going to use the compounded interest formula:

A=P(1+r/n)^n*t

Where,

A = the future value of the investment/loan, including interest

P = the principal investment amount (the initial deposit or loan amount)

r = the annual interest rate (decimal)

n = the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t

t = t is the amount of time at which you're checking how much it's worth (yrs)

Using this information, we can use:

A=500(1+0.025/4)^3*4

A=500(1+0.00625)^12

A=500(1.00625)^12

A=500(1.07763259886)

A=538.82

A=$538.82....
