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

lana66690 [7]
Answer:

EC = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

The whole entire line measures 49

DB measures 30

49 - 30 = 19 or ED

But we’re looking for EC so…

19 + 16 = 35

EC = 35

Find x when y=5 if y varies inversely as x and x=6 when y =-18
Vera_Pavlovna [14]
It has been given that y varies inversely with x, therefore the equation for this relationship is as follows;
y =\frac{k}{x}\
when y = -18 and x = 6
-18 = k/ 6 ---1)
We need to find x when y = 5
 5 = k/x
when we divide 1)/2), k gets cancelled 

\frac{-18}{5}=  \frac{x}{6}
x = -18*6/5
x = -21.6
when y = 5, then x = -21.6

a comedy show sells lower level tickets for $78 and upper level tickets for $59. on the opening knight 2368 tickets were sold fo
shusha [124]
Let L represent lower level tickets and U upper level.

Starter equations:
L + U = 2368
78L + 59U = 157800

Solve simultaneous equations:
59L + 59U = 139712
so 19L = 18088
L = 952
U = 2368 - 952 = 1416

952 lower level tickets and 1416 upper level tickets were sold.
