Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
96 degrees
Discussion:
The base angles of an isosceles triangle are equal and a triangle has 180 degrees. In our case this means that
42 + 42 + (measure of vertex angle) = 180
84 + (measure of vertex angle) = 180 => (subtract 84 from both sides)
84 - 84 + (measure of vertex angle) = 180- 84 =>
(measure of vertex angle) = 180- 84 = 96
Thank you,

1. Rewrite the system:
x+12y=68 (i)
x=8y-12 (ii)
2. Let's substitute the equation (ii) into the equation (i):
x+12y=68
(8y-12)+12y=68
3. Then, you have:
8y-12+12y=68
4. When you clear "y", you have:
20y-12=68
20y=68+12
20y=80
y=80/20
y=4
5. You already have the value of "y". Now, you must substitute this value into the equation (ii):
x=8y-12
x=8(4)-12
x=32-12
x=20
6. Therefore, the result is:
x=20
y=4
This is just simple subtraction, 59.99 - 47.50
The answer is C: 12.49
Pay attention here because I'm adding an extra letter to our circle to help keep track of the values in our formula. OUTSIDE of the intercepted arc I'm adding the point E. So the major arc is arc BEG and the minor arc is arc BG. The formula then for us is ∠

. We just don't have values for the arcs yet. If the measure of the central angle is 4x+238, then the measure of arcBG is also 4x+238. Around the outside of the circle is 360°. So we will use it in an expression. ArcBEG=360-(4x+238). Fitting that into our formula we have
![2x+146= \frac{1}{2}[(360-4x-238)-(4x+238)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2x%2B146%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B%28360-4x-238%29-%284x%2B238%29%5D%20)
. Doing all the simplifying inside there we have

and

. Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction: 4x+292=-8x-116. Combine like terms to get 12x = -408 and divide to solve for x. x = -34. Fourth choice down from the top.
Answer:
3 (negative 64 divided by 8) + 25 = 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Negative 4 + (negative 5) (negative 6) divided by (negative 3) = -4 + (-5)(-6)/(-3) = -4 + 30/-3 = -4 - 10 = -14
8 Left-bracket 10 divided by (2) (negative 2) Right-bracket = 8(10/((2)(-2)) = -20
3 (negative 64 divided by 8) + 25 = 3(-64/8) + 25 = 3(-8) + 25 = -24 + 25 = 1
Negative 2 (negative 5) (negative 3) divided by 10 = (-2)(-5)(-3)/10 = -3
The only positive value here is 1, which is a result of 3 (negative 64 divided by 8) + 25
