Place the point of the compass on point J and draw an arc in the interior of the triangle.
-5/8 divided by -3/4 is the same as -5/8 multiplied by -4/3. Multiply the tops to get 20. Multiply the bottoms to get 24. A negative over a negative is positive and you end up with 20/24! :)
Answer: the first option is the correct answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of necklaces that he makes in a year.
Profit = Revenue - cost
The cost of making each necklace is $5. In making necklaces in a year, the fixed cost is $5000. This means that the total cost of making x necklaces in a year is
5x + 5000
Sam sells each necklace for $10 each. This means that the total amount made from selling x necklaces is $10x.
For Sam to make profit of $1000 in a year, the number of necklaces that she must sell would be
1000 = 10x - (5x + 5000)
1000 = 10x - 5x - 5000
10x - 5x = 1000 + 5000
5x = 6000
x = 6000/5
x = 1200
Answer: Arc CE measures 62 units
Step-by-step explanation: What we have in the question is a circle with two secants ABC and ADE. The two secants have been extended such that two arcs have been formed which are, major arc CE (that is, 4x - 10) and minor arc BD (that is 26).
When you have a circle with two intersecting secants, the angle x (that is angle CAE) is derived as half of the difference of the two intercepted arcs. That is;
Angle x = 1/2 [CE - BD)
Angle x = 1/2 [ (4x - 10) - 26]
Angle x = 1/2(4x - 36)
Cross multiply and we now have
2x = 4x - 36
Collect like terms and we now have
36 = 4x - 2x
36 = 2x
Divide both sides by 2
18 = x
Having calculated x as 18, where arc CE equals 4x - 10, then substitute for the value of x.
CE = 4(18) - 10
CE = 72 - 10
CE = 62
