Answer:

A. 76

Step-by-step explanation:

Angle A is half the difference between the measures of arc DE and BC.

m∠A = (1/2)(DE -BC)

20 = (1/2)(116 -BC) . . . . substitute the given values

40 = 116 -BC . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

BC = 116 -40 . . . . . . . . add BC -40

BC = 76

Comment on intersecting secants

When the secants intersect inside the circle, the angle where they cross is half the sum of the intercepted arcs. When they intersect outside the circle (as here), the angle where they meet is half the difference of the intercepted acs.

Sometimes it is easier to remember two related relationships than it is to remember just one of them.

Weights of different sandwiches in two lengths are shown in the table.

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

Egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of Sandwiches by Length of Roll

6-inch Roll 12-Inch Roll

Cheese sandwich $\frac{1}{4}$ $\frac{3}{4}$

Chicken salad sandwich $\frac{3}{4}$ $1\frac{3}{4}$

Egg salad sandwich $\frac{2}{3}$ $1\frac{1}{3}$

For cheese sandwich proportion

$\frac{6}{\frac{1}{4}}=\frac{12}{\frac{3}{4}}\\24 \neq 16$

So, Cheese sandwich weight is not proportional to its length

For Chicken salad sandwich proportion

$\frac{6}{\frac{3}{4}}=\frac{12}{\frac{7}{4}}\\8 \neq \frac{48}{7}$

So, chicken salad sandwich is not proportional to its length

For Egg salad sandwich proportion

$\frac{6}{\frac{2}{3}}=\frac{12}{\frac{4}{3}}\\9=9$

So, egg salad sandwich is proportional to its length

What is the Inverse Equation f(x) =6x-1 ?? please I need help!

Scrat [10]

Answer:

$f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x+1}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

So we have the function:

$f(x)=6x-1$

To find the inverse function, switch x and f(x), change f(x) to f⁻¹(x), and solve for f⁻¹(x). Therefore:

$f(x)=6x-1$

Switch:

$x=6f^{-1}(x)-1$

Add 1 to both sides:

$x+1=6f^{-1}(x)$

Divide both sides by 6:

$f^{-1}(x)=\frac{x+1}{6}$

And that's our answer :)

Define table represents a group frequency discretion of the number of hours spent on the computer per week for 49 student. What

Scilla [17]

Observe the given data distribution table carefully.

The 5th class interval is given as,

$14.0-17.4$

The upper limit (UL) and lower limit (LL) of this interval are,

$\begin{gathered} UL=17.4 \\ LL=14.0 \end{gathered}$

Thus, the upper-class limit of this 5th class is 17.4.
