Answer:

m\angle ABO=18^o

Step-by-step explanation:

see the attached figure to better understand the problem

we know that

If AB is tangent to circle O at point A

then

AB is perpendicular to AO (radius) and Triangle ABO is a right triangle

so

m\angle ABO+m\angle AOB=90^o ----> by complementary angles in a right triangle

substitute the given value

m\angle ABO+72^o=90^o

m\angle ABO=90^o-72^o=18^o

There are 160 people in a grade. The ratio of boys to girls is 3 to 5. Which proportion can you use to find the number x of boys
Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

60 boys

Step-by-step explanation:

boys : girls = 3 : 5

Total number of people = 160

Let y = common factor:

Therefore, 3y + 5y = 160

⇒ 8y = 160

⇒ y = 160 ÷ 8 = 20

Boys = 3y = 3 x 20 = 60

Girls = 5y = 5 x 20 = 100

So there are 60 boys and 100 girls

What is the common difference of the arithmetic sequence graphed below?
galben [10]
I think it’s -0.75. The x coordinate represents the term number so y would show the pattern which is -3.75, -4.5, -5.25, -6, -6.75, -7.5, -8.25, -9. To get to the next number, each term is being decreased by 0.75. Hope this helps :)

What is the complete factorization of the polynomial function over the set of complex numbers?
quester [9]

Answer:

f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=x³-5x²+4x-20                 1. Just group randomly

f(x)=x²(x-5)+4(x-5)                2. Factor the groupings

f(x)=(x²+4)(x-5)                      

<u>f(x)=(x-2)(x+2)(x-5)</u>                3. Factor the difference of two squares
