The exterior angle at the intersection of the tangent and secant has a measure that is half the difference between the intercepted arcs.

... ((10x+20) -80)/2 = 2x+15

... 5x -30 = 2x +15

... 3x = 45

... x = 15

So, the unknown arc to the right has measure

.. 10x + 20 = 10·15 +20 = 170

And the arcs of the circle total 360°.

... 80 + z + 170 = 360

... z = 360 - 250 = 110 . . . subtract 250 from both sides

The appropriate choice for the value of z is

... B. 110

When given an inverse variation, how do you find k?

atroni [7]

Considering an inverse proportional relationship, you find k taking a point (x,y), and multiplying the values of x and y.

<h3>What is a proportional relationship?</h3>

A proportional relationship is a function in which the output variable is given by the input variable multiplied by a constant of proportionality, that is:

y = kx

In which k is the constant of proportionality.

For an inverse relationship, the function is:

$y = \frac{k}{x}$ .

Then:

k = xy.

Which means that to find k, you take a point (x,y), and multiply the values of x and y.

The tile backslash will be a mixture of colors of five-inch square tiles. One quarter of the tiles will be "Indian Red" one sixt

Vladimir79 [104]

Answer:

The fraction of tiles that will be the color of "sand" is 23/60

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The sum of the fractions of the tiles must be equal to 1

Let

x ----> the fraction of tiles that will be the color of "sand"

we have that

$\frac{1}{4}+\frac{1}{6}+\frac{1}{5}+x=1$

solve for x

Find the Least Common Multiple of denominators

$LCM=(2^2)((3)(5)=60$

Multiply both sides by 60

$\frac{60}{4}+\frac{60}{6}+\frac{60}{5}+60x=60$

simplify

$15+10+12+60x=60$

$60x=60-37\\60x=23\\x=\frac{23}{60}$

therefore

The fraction of tiles that will be the color of "sand" is 23/60

You evidence of how you got that answer

Evgesh-ka [11]

It’s a. The reason is because Beth makes a stable income for her first 20hrs of work, and then gets another constant income for her coming hours. That said this has to be a straight line followed by another straight line. That narrows it down to a and b. It can’t be b, because if it were Beth would be making less than she did before after her pay changes. Because she makes more, the graph showing this must be a
