Angle B is opposite to angle D.
Since quadrilateral ABCD is inscribed in a circle, it’s a cyclic quadrilateral.
The sum of the opposite angles of a cyclic quadrilateral is 180 degrees.
(x-5)+(3x+5)=180
4x=180
x=180/4
x=65 degrees

Answer: x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Quadrilaterals inscribed in a circle have all four vertices on the circle.

A unique property of these types of quadrilaterals is their angle measures: Opposite angles of inscribed quadrilaterals will always add up to 180 (they are supplementary angles).

As such, the inscribed quadrilateral ABCD has opposite angles at AC and BD. Because the quadrilateral is inscribed, this means that the angles A + C and the angles B + D will equal 180 degrees. We can represent the angles measures for B and D in an equation where B + D = 180:

(x-5)+(3x+5)=180\\\\4x = 180\\\\x=45

When x = 45, the angle B is 40 degrees and the angle D is 140 degrees.

-62 + 18y = 264<br> -12x - 36y = 130<br><br><br> What solution is this
sergeinik [125]

Answer: x = -\frac{391}{6} =\\-65 \frac{1}{6}\\ -65.166666667\\y=\frac{163}{9}=18\frac{1}{9}  \\18.111111111

Step-by-step explanation: Multiply -36 and 163/9 to get -652. Add 652 to both sides then add 130 and 652 to get 782. Divide both sides by -12 then reduce the fraction 782/-12 to lowest terms by extracting and canceling out 2. The system is now solved.

Answer:

x > 60

Step-by-step explanation:

From the picture attached,

An arrow starting with a hollow circle from x = 60, directing towards positive numbers (greater than 60).

So, hollow circle will represent an inequality with no sign of 'equal to' and arrow will represent the sign of greater than (As moving ahead of 60).

Inequality representing the picture will be,

x > 60

What is the fourth term of an arithmetic sequence whose first term is 23 and whose seventh term is 5?
mixas84 [53]

We have that  the fourth term of an arithmetic sequence is

a_4=14

Option C

From the question we are told

What is the fourth term of an arithmetic sequence whose first term is 23 and whose seventh term is 5?

A) 78

B) 32

C) 14

(Explain your work)

Generally the equation for the  arithmetic sequence  is mathematically given as

a_4=a_1+(n-1)d

Therefore

For seventh term

5=23+(6)d\\\\d=5-23/(6)\\\\d=-3

Therefore

For Fourth term

a_4=23+(3*(-3))

a_4=14
