Answer:   33

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The ratio of Adhy's to Ben's is 3:4 so let

Adhy = 3x

Ben = 4x

Since Ben = Adhy + 9

then   4x   =    3x    + 9

-->        x    =  9

So, Adhy = 3x  = 3(9)   = 27

     Ben   = 4x   = 4(9)   = 36

*************************************************************

The ratio of Ben's to Clayson's is 3:5

How do we get Ben's ratio of 3 equal to 36? <em>by multiplying by 12</em>

Ben  :  Clayson

<u>3 x 12</u>    <u>5 x 12</u>

 36          60

So, Clayson = 60

***********************************************************

The difference between Adhy and Clayson is:

Clayson - Adhy

   60     -    27    = 33

What is the approximate length of arc s on the circle below? use 3.14 for . round your answer to the nearest tenth. 14.1 in. 22.
Maksim231197 [3]
I FOUND YOUR COMPLETE QUESTION IN OTHER SOURCES.
 PLEASE SEE ATTACHED IMAGE.

 The length of an arc, by definition is given by:
 s = R * theta
 Where,
 R: radio
 theta: angle of the bow.
 We then have to replace:
 s = (6) * (135 * (pi / 180))
 s = 14.1 in
 Answer:
 The length of the arc s is:
 s = 14.1 in

Universal Studios is looking to expand in Ontario. The new theme park will be located equidistant to

<h3>Answer:  (2, 3)</h3>

===============================================

Explanation:

For now, we're only going to consider Newmarket and Markham, which are points N and M respectively.

Let's find the slope of line NM through use of the slope formula.

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

m = (3-8)/(7-2)

m = -5/5

m = -1

Line NM has a slope of -1. Its perpendicular slope is +1 or just 1.

Rule: If the slopes multiply to -1, then the lines are perpendicular.

Or you can apply the negative reciprocal rule to go from -1 to 1.

We'll keep this perpendicular slope in mind for later.

----------------

Now let's find the midpoint of points N and M.

Add up the x coordinates and divide by 2: (x1+x2)/2 = (2+7)/2 = 4.5

Do the same for the y coordinates:  (y1+y2)/2 = (8+3)/2 = 5.5

The midpoint of N and M is at (4.5, 5.5)

The perpendicular line must go through these two points. I'm going to skip a few steps here, but basically we go from y = mx+b to y = x+1 after plugging in those x,y values and the perpendicular m we found earlier.

--------------------

In short, the perpendicular bisector for line segment NM is the equation y = x+1.

If you follow the same steps as the previous two sections, but you apply them for points M and V instead, then you should find that the perpendicular bisector is y = -3x+9. I'm skipping steps here as well.

----------------------

At this point, we have the system of equations

\begin{cases}y = x+1\\y = -3x+9\end{cases}

Let's use substitution to solve for x and y

y = x+1

-3x+9 = x+1

-3x-x = 1-9

-4x = -8

x = -8/(-4)

x = 2

y = x+1

y = 2+1

y = 3

So together, x = 2 and y = 3 pair up to get the ordered pair solution (x,y) = (2,3)

This is the location where the theme park should be placed. Let's say that C = (2,3). I'm using C for center.

You can use the distance formula to confirm that segments CN, CM and CV are all the same length, which would verify that point C is equidistant from all the other points. Furthermore, it means that points N, M and V are all on the same circle centered at C.

I know it says not to use a graph, but it still helps to see what's going on. Also, it's a handy way to confirm the answer. I used GeoGebra to make the graph. See the diagram below.

Side note: you only need 2 perpendicular bisectors to find point C. You could use three, but that's overkill since they all intersect at the same location.
