Question

Find the variable x.

Answer 1

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angle (5x - 3) is equal to half the measure of the intercepted arc

5x - 3 = 0.5(9x + 1) ← multiply both sides by 2

10x - 6 = 9x + 1 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

x - 6 = 1 ( add 6 to both sides )

x = 7
