A line tangent to a circle and a radius of the same circle intersect at the point of tangency to create an angle of what measure

1 answer:

3 0

A theorem states that, given a circle with center C and a point P on the circumference, the tangent line through P and the radius CP are perpendicular.

So, the answer is 90 degrees.

Permutations of the word "Congratulations"

Mice21 [21]

Answer:

There are 15 letters, but if the two A's must always be together, that's the same as if they're just one letter, so our "base count" is 14! ; note that this way of counting means that we also don't need to worry about compensating for "double counting" identical permutations due to transposition of those A's, because we don't "count" both transpositions. However, that counting does "double count" equivalent permutations due to having two O's, two N's, and two T's, so we do need to compensate for that. Therefore the final answer is 14!/(23)=10,897,286,400

Eric has $25 to purchase magazines and to pay for his lunch. Each

faust18 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The maximum amount Eric can spend on magazines is $25 less the cost of lunch, $15.

The appropriate inequality sign would be less than since he cannot spend more than $25.

Also, the amount he can spend on magazines would be what is left after paying for lunch.

So the correct inequality is 4m - 15 < 25

Look at the system of equations below.

Annette [7]

Answer:

Substitution and graphing are less efficient methods than elimination for this system as there is extra amount of steps we have to take to solve the same system of equations - hence time consuming and a margin or error may happen. Therefore, elimination is the suitable method for solving this system.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us consider the system of equation below.

$4x-5y=3$

$3x+5y=13$

Elimination method sounds the most appropriate option to solve the given system of equations as we can easily sort out an equation in one variable x in minimal steps by just adding the both equations as the y-coefficient in the first equation is the opposite of the y-coefficient in the second equation, and we can determine an equation in one variable x.

Adding both equations will eliminate the y-variable and we can easily sort out the value of x from the resulting equation.

As the given system of equation

$4x-5y=3$ $......[1]$

$3x+5y=13$ $......[2]$

Adding Equation 1 and Equation 2

$4x-5y+3x+5y=3+13$

$7x=16$

$x=$ $\frac{16}{7}$

Putting $x=$ $\frac{16}{7}$ in Equation [1]

$4x-5y=3$ $......[1]$

$y=$ $\frac{43}{35}$

Although substitution or graphing methods can also be used to bring the solution of the given system of equations, but using substitution or graphing method can be sometimes cumbersome or time-consuming as it would have to take some additional steps to solve the system.

For example, if we would have to use the substitution methods to solve the given system of equations, first we would have to solve one of the equations by choosing one of the equation for one of the chosen variables and then putting this back into the other equation, and solve for the other, and then back-solving for the first variable.

As the given system of equation

$4x-5y=3$ $......[1]$

$3x+5y=13$ $......[2]$

Solving the equation 2 for x variable

$3x=13-5y$

$x=\frac{13-5y}{3}$

Plugging $x=\frac{13-5y}{3}$ in equation [1]

$4(\frac{13-5y}{3}) -5y=3$

$y = \frac{43}{35}$

Putting $y = \frac{43}{35}$ in Equation 2

$3x+5y=13$ $......[2]$

$x = \frac{16}{7}$

So, you can figure out, we have to make additional steps when we use substitution method to solve this system of equations.

Similarly, using graphing method, it would take a certain time before we identify the solution of the system.

Hence, from all the discussion and analysis we did, we can safely say that substitution and graphing are less efficient methods than elimination for this system as there is extra amount of steps we have to take to solve the same system of equations - hence time consuming and a margin or error may happen.

Therefore, we agree with the student argument that Elimination is the best method for solving this system because the y-coefficient in the first equation is the opposite of the y-coefficient in the second equation.
