X = Juan's age
y = Eliza's age

Some key words/phrases we can use to help us make the equation are:

-is (whatever comes after this word usually equals the end result, or what it equals)
-two years younger
-than
-half her brother's age
.
just break it down :)

x/2 (half her brother's age) - 2 (two years younger) = y (Eliza is...)

| basically,
v

x/2 - 2 = y
So if Juan is 6, then we need to plug in 6 for x.

6/2 - 2 = y

3 - 2 = y

1 = y

ANSWER: Eliza is one year old.

In the figure below, BD and AC are diameters of circle P.
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

arc\ DC=30^o

Step-by-step explanation:

<u><em>The picture of the question in the attached figure</em></u>

The point P is the center of the circle (the drawing is not a scale )

step 1

Find the measure of angle ∠CPD

we know that

m\angle CPD+150^o=180^o ---> by supplementary angles (form a linear pair)

m\angle CPD=180^o-150^o=30^o

step 2

Find the measure of arc DC

we know that

<u><em>Central angle</em></u> is the angle that has its vertex in the center of the circumference and the sides are radii of it

so

arc\ DC=m\angle CPD ----> by central angle

therefore

arc\ DC=30^o
