Number of slices of a peach pie = 12 slices.

Number of slices of a cherry pie = 8 slices.

Narendra and his friends ate 6/12 of the peach pie.

Let us assume x number of slices of the cherry pie they ate.

So, we can setup a proportion:

\frac{x}{8} =\frac{6}{12}

On cross multiplying, we get

12x = 8×6

12x = 48.

Dividing both sides by 12, we get

12x/12 = 48/12

x=4.

<h3>Therefore, they ate 4 slices of the cherry pie. </h3>

Two towns that are 31.5 km apart are 3 cm apart on a map. what is the scale of the map?
VLD [36.1K]

<u>Answer:</u>

1 cm : 10.5 km

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

We are given that two towns are 31.5 km in real and are 3 cm apart on a map and we are to find the scale of the map.

For this, we can use the ratio method.

\frac { 3 cm } { 1 c m } = \frac { 3 1 . 5 k m } { x }

x = \frac { 3 1 . 5 \times 1 } { 3 }

x = 1 0 . 5

Therefore, the scale of the map would be 1 cm : 10.5 km.

Determine whether line segment FG is tangent to circle E.
liubo4ka [24]

The tangent meets the radius at a right angle.

We use (the converse of) the Pythagorean Theorem to check:

26^2 + 17^2 = 965 \ne 30^2

Not a right triangle

Answer: FALSE

Ashton made contributions to a Roth IRA over the course of 32 working years. His contributions averaged $2,400 annually. Ashton
enyata [817]
The formula of the future value of an annuity ordinary is
Fv=pmt [(1+r)^(n)-1)÷r]
Fv future value?
PMT 2400
R 0.08
T 32 years
Fv=2,400×((1+0.08)^(32)−1)÷(0.08)
Fv=322,112.49
Now deducte 28% the tax bracket from the amount we found
annual tax 2,400×0.28 =672 and tax over 32 years is 672×32 =21,504. So the effective value of Ashton's Roth IRA at retirement is 322,112.49−21,504=300,608.49

Answer: x = 150°

Step-by-step explanation:

The tangent intersects the circle's radius at a 90° angle, so ∠OAC = ∠OBC = 90°.

AOBC is a quadrilateral and we know that sum of interior angles of quadrilateral equals to 360°.

Now,

∠OAC + ∠OBC + ∠AOB + ∠ACB = 360°

90° + 90° + x + 30° = 360°

210° + x = 360°

x = 360° - 210°

x = 150°
