Given :
Jack bought 50 lbs of clay for his art projects. He used 13.2 lbs to make a sculpture, and 0.72 lbs for each mug.
To Find :
How many mugs did Jack make if he had 28.88 lbs of clay left over.
Solution :
Clay required to make 1 mug, r = 0.72 lbs.
Amount of clay left after making sculpture is, T = 28.88 lbs.
Now, number of clay mug Jack can make is :
Since, number of mug cannot be in decimal, so we take the floor value.
Therefore, number of mug that can be prepared is 40 .
Answer:
4. 158
Step-by-step explanation:
First let's make things a little simpler and put these arcs in terms of x. We know that the degree measure around the outside of a circle, regardless of its size, is 360. So let's say that arc BC is x. That means that arc BDC is 360 - x. This is because arc BC + arc BDC = 360. Substituting in our x's we have:
x + 360 - x = 360 and
360 = 360. (That's just the proof that putting in our x's as we did does in fact work!)
Following the formula then, we have
and
Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction and get
44 = 360 - 2x
Subtract 360 rom both sides to get
-316 = -2x
Divide both sides by -2 to get that x = 158
Since we are looking for arc BC and we designated arc BC as our x, that means that arc BC = 158.
