What is the arc length of the subtending arc for an angle of 72 degrees on a circle of radius 4?

1 answer:

4 0

We know that

[the length of a circumference]=2*pi*r
for r= 4 units
[the length of a circumference]=2*pi*4--------------> 25.12 units

if a full circle (360°) has a length---------------------> 25.12 units
arc for an angle of 72 °---------------------------> X
X=72*25.12/360------------> 5.024 units

the answer is
<span>the length of the subtending arc for an angle of 72</span>° is 5.024 units

If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?A.5B.10C.15D.20

<h2>Answer:</h2> $10.\text{ Option B is correct}$

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Given the equation expressed as:

$2x+5=8x$

First, we need to calculate the value of "x" from the given expression.

Step 1: Given the equation 2x + 5 = 8x

Step 2: Subtract 5 from both sides:

$\begin{gathered} 2x+5-5=8x-5 \\ 2x+\cancel{5}-\cancel{5}=8x-5 \\ 2x=8x-5 \end{gathered}$

Step 3: Subtract 8x from both sides

$\begin{gathered} 2x-8x=8x-8x-5 \\ -6x=\cancel{8x}-\cancel{8x}-5 \\ -6x=-5 \end{gathered}$

Step 4: Divide both sides by -6

$\begin{gathered} \frac{-6x}{-6}=\frac{-5}{-6} \\ x=\frac{5}{6} \end{gathered}$

Step 5: Get the value of 12x. Substitute x = 5/6 into the expression to have:

$\begin{gathered} 12x=12(\frac{5}{6}) \\ 12x=\cancel{12}^2(\frac{5}{\cancel{6}^1}) \\ 12x=2\times5 \\ 12x=10 \end{gathered}$

Therefore the value of 12x is 10

Alex is trying to run a certain number of miles by the end of the month Alex is 40% of the way to achieving her goal and she alr

docker41 [41]

Answer:

30 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Alex has some target to run a certain number of miles by the end of the month.

Goal already achieved = 40% of the total goal

Number of miles already run by Alex = 12 miles

To find:

Number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of month?

Solution:

We have to find nothing but the goal of Alex here.

Let the number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of the month = $x$ miles

As per question statement:

40% of total number of miles to be run = 12 miles

$\dfrac{40}{100}\times x = 12\\\Rightarrow 40x=12\times 100\\\Rightarrow x = \dfrac{1200}{40}\\\Rightarrow \bold{x = 30\ miles}$

Total number of miles that Alex is trying to run by the end of the month = <em>30 miles</em>

At the county fair, Darius can purchase 3 candy apples and 4 bags of peanuts for $11.33. He can purchase 9 candy apples and 5 ba

Ksenya-84 [330]

Let c represents the cost of a candy apple and b represents the cost of a bag of peanuts.

Darius can purchase 3 candy apples and 4 bags of peanuts. So his total cost would be 3c + 4b. Darius can buy 3 candy apples and 4 bags of peanuts in $11.33,so we can write the equation as:

3c + 4b = 11.33 (1)

Darius can purchase 9 candy apples and 5 bags of peanuts. So his total cost would be 9c + 5b. Darius can buy 9 candy apples and 5 bags of peanuts in $23.56,so we can write the equation as:

9c + 5b = 23.56 (2)

<span>Darius decides to purchase 2 candy apples and 3 bags of peanuts. The total cost in this case will be 2c + 3b. To find this first we need to find the cost of each candy apple and bag of peanuts by solving the above two equations.

Multiplying equation 1 by three and subtracting equation 2 from it, we get:

3(3c + 4b) - (9c + 5b) = 3(11.33) - 23.56

9c + 12b - 9c - 5b = 10.43

7b = 10.43

b = $1.49

Using the value of b in equation 1, we get:

3c + 4(1.49) = 11.33

3c = 5.37

c = $ 1.79

Thus, cost of one candy apple is $1.79 and cost of one bag of peanuts is $1.49.

So, 2c + 3b = 2(1.79) + 3(1.49) = $ 8.05

Therefore, Darius can buy 2 candy apples and 3 bags of peanuts in $8.05</span>
