Answer:

x=60

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that when two secant lines, or a secant line and a tangent line, intersect at a point outside the circle, the measure of the angle formed at the point of intersection is half the difference between measures of the intercepted arcs.

So, we can set up the equation $55=\frac{1}{2} (170-x)$ , which will come out to $x=60$ .

hope this helps!

Dianna and Becky were playing on the same soccer team and took turns being goalie. They stoped 9 out of 10 shots made against th

vitfil [10]

Answer:

27 balls

Step-by-step explanation:

If Dianna and Becky stopped 9 out of 10 shots made against them.

It means they allowed in 1 out of 10 shots made against them.

This is best solved using ratios

Proportion of Shots Stopped : Proportion of Shots allowed=9:1

If the other team scores 3 points, it means the number of shots allowed =3

Let x be the number of shots stopped

Number of Shots Stopped : Number of Shots allowed=x:3

Therefore:

9:1=x:3

$\frac{9}{1}=\frac{x}{3}$

Cross multiplying

x=9 X 3 =27

Dianna and Becky stopped 27 balls from going into the net,

A/ab-bsquare + b/ab-asquare?

lord [1]

Answer:

$\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is :

$\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}$

It can be solved as follows :

$\dfrac{a}{ab-b^2}+\dfrac{b}{ab-a^2}=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{a(b-a)}\\\\=\dfrac{a}{b(a-b)}+\dfrac{b}{-a(-b+a)}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{a-b}(\dfrac{a}{b}-\dfrac{b}{a})\\\\=\dfrac{a^2-b^2}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a-b)(a+b)}{ab(a-b)}\\\\=\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$

So, the solution of the given expression is equal to $\dfrac{(a+b)}{ab}$ .

Explain when the median of a data set is a better measure of center than the mean.

shusha [124]

With data, you can have outliers. Outliers are values that do not follow what the range or majority of the data you collected so a value of 45, 42, 45, 48, 42, 44, 88, the mean will obviously be different because the 88 is going to change the whole data. But, if you put it from least to greatest, you can see what the majority of data is, (what the middle value is) to see what is in the middle range of what you have collect- the outliers don't affect what you have. Hence, 42, 42, 44, 45, 45, 88 (it's not much data) but it can show what the majority of data is. Hope this helps :> :)
