(2x-24)/8
the only way to simplify it is divide every number by 2
(x-12)/4=(1/4)x-3
The answer would be 19. 3 * 19 = 57 and 3/57 = 19.
To solve for AC in the given inscribed angle we proceed as follows:
An inscribed angle is an angle with its vertex "on" the circle formed by two intersecting chords as in our drawing. Thus here we shall use the formula:
Inscribed Angle=1/2 intercepted Arc
thus
m∠ABC=1/2mAC
thus plugging in our values we shall have:
4x-3.5=1/2(4x+17)
4x-3.5=2x+8.5
solving simplifying and solving for x we obtain
4x-2x=8.5+3.5
2x=12
hence
x=12/2
x=6°
