No 1 is not your answer, -1 would be your answer.

To show my work, here.

1. Expand (<span>6x −6= 4x − <span>8)
2. </span></span>Subtract <span>4x</span> from both sides (<span>6x−6−4x=−<span>8)
3. simplify 6x - 6 - 4x to 2x - 6 ( 2x - 6 = -8)
4. Add 6 to both sides ( 2x = -8 + 6)
5. simplify -8 + 6 to -2 (2x = -2)
6. divide both sides by 2 (x = -1)</span></span>

Find a value for Y and give a reason for your answer
leva [86]

Step-by-step explanation:

inscribed angles subtended by the same arc are equal.

the central angle of a circle is twice any inscribed angle subtended by the same arc.

the first statement tells us that the 53° angle as well as y stay the same size no matter where on their arcs (between the 2 points connected to O) they would be. so, we don't need to bother with any line lengths.

the 2nd statement tells us that x = 2×53 = 106°. the 53° and x angles refer to the short arc on the right of the 2 points connected to O.

and y and x refer to the larger arc on the left of the 2 line connected to O. that means according to the second statement : 360-x (the big angle around O) = 2y

so,

360 - 106 = 2y

254 = 2y

y = 127°

12.

Square root = 37,

Step-by-step explanation:

40^2 = 1600

35^2 = 30 * 40 + 25 = 1225

So the requred square is between 35 and 40

38^2 = 1444

37^2 = 1369 - so its this one.

Required difference = 1381 - 1369 = 12.
