Answer: Arc CE measures 62 units

Step-by-step explanation: What we have in the question is a circle with two secants ABC and ADE. The two secants have been extended such that two arcs have been formed which are, major arc CE (that is, 4x - 10) and minor arc BD (that is 26).

When you have a circle with two intersecting secants, the angle x (that is angle CAE) is derived as half of the difference of the two intercepted arcs. That is;

Angle x = 1/2 [CE - BD)

Angle x = 1/2 [ (4x - 10) - 26]

Angle x = 1/2(4x - 36)

Cross multiply and we now have

2x = 4x - 36

Collect like terms and we now have

36 = 4x - 2x

36 = 2x

Divide both sides by 2

18 = x

Having calculated x as 18, where arc CE equals 4x - 10, then substitute for the value of x.

CE = 4(18) - 10

CE = 72 - 10

CE = 62

Answer:

Correct answer: B

Step-by-step explanation:

Syntax: in piecewise functions such as the one attached, the "if:" section shows the domain, or x-axis values which that function pertains to.

In the graph, you can see that the graph is defined for $-3\leq x < 1$ (not-including 1 because there is an open hole there, indicating it is not part of the domain), and $2\leq x\leq 4$ .

Now that we know the domain, we can attach it to the graphs that lie on those domains.

We see that the leftmost line appears to have a positive slope and a negative y-intercept, and that the second line should have a positive y-intercept and a negative slope.

At this point, you can just start crossing off answers that don't meet this criteria.

Cheers!!
