Jeremy=x
Older sister=x+5
younger sister=x+5-9 or x-4
x+(x+5)+(x-4)=49
combine like terms
3x+5-4=49
3x+1=49
subtract 1 from both sides
3x=48
divide both sides by 3
x=16
Jeremy=16
Older sister=16+5=21
younger sister =16-4 or 16+5-9=12
J=16
OS=21
YS=12

Circle D is below what is the arc measure of BC in degrees
maks197457 [2]

Answer:

84°

Step-by-step explanation:

\because (13n - 16) \degree + (7n  + 12) \degree + (6n)\degree \\= 360\degree \\  \\  \therefore \: (26n - 4) \degree= 360\degree \\  \\  \therefore \: 26n - 4= 360 \\  \\ \therefore \: 26n = 360 + 4 \\  \\ \therefore \: 26n = 364 \\  \\ \therefore \: n =  \frac{364}{26}  \\  \\ \therefore \: n =  14 \\  \\\because  m\overset { \frown}{BC} = (6n)°\\  \\\therefore \:m \overset { \frown}{BC} =(6\times 14)°  \\  \\   \huge \purple {\boxed {\therefore \:m\overset { \frown}{BC}= 84°}} \\

Find 15 * 15 * 15 * 500 how does this compare to finding 45 x 500
andrew11 [14]
15 * 15 * 15 * 500 = 1,687,500. it's different from finding 45 * 500 because 
15 * 15* 15 * 500 is the same as writing it as 15^3 * 500. This meaning you multiply the number 15 by itself 3 times, not add it 3 times, which is what
45 * 500 was showing. I hope this helped.
