we know that

The measure of the external angle is the semidifference of the arcs that it covers

∠MLN=(1/2)*(mayor arc MN-minor arc MN)

Let

x------> minor arc MN

major arc MN=360-x

substitute in the formula above

∠MLN=(1/2)*(mayor arc MN-minor arc MN)

75.86=(1/2)*(360-x-x)------> 151.72=(360-2x)------>360-151.72=2x

x=104.14°

therefore

the answer is

the measure of arc MN (minor arc) is 104.14°

point k is between points j and l if jk=xsquared -4x, kl= 3x-2, and jl= 28, write and solve an equation to find the lengths of j

nadya68 [22]

Jk= 18
Kl= 10

3x - 2 = 28
+2. +2
3x / 3 and 30 / 3 = 10
28-10 = 18

You want to know the mean number of sick days taken by students in your county last year. At each of five schools you randomly s

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Add each sample separately

A.17 B. 47 C. 39 D. 52 E. 45

Then you add them all together which totals 200 sick days

We know that they surveyed 5 schools and 10 students at random from each one. So we want to know the mean of sick days the students took not the schools in all.

So we divide 200/50

And get a mean of 4.

So each student took an average of 4 sick days each in the country.

14. f(x) = -x4 + x² + 4; x = -1

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

f(-1) = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

See below for the synthetic division tableau. The remainder is 4, hence ...

f(-1) = 4

___

IMO, in this function it is far easier just to substitute -1 for x. Since the only terms are of even degree, the value of f(-1) is the sum of the coefficients:

f(-1) = -1 +1 +4

f(-1) = 4
