Answer:

x = 170 deg

Step-by-step explanation:

A tangent to a circle is perpendicular to the radius of the circle at the point of tangency. That means that in quadrilateral AOBC, angles A and B are right angles and measure 90 deg.

The sum of the measures of the angles of an n-sided polygon is

(n - 2)180 deg

In this case, n = 4, so

(4 - 2)180 deg = 360 deg

m<A + m<O + m<B + m<C = 360

90 + x + 90 + 10 = 360

x + 190 = 360

x = 170

Answer: 170 deg

AOB ( x) + ACB = 180

AOB (x) + 10 = 180

x = 180-10

x = 170

the vertices of triangle PQR are P(-3, 8), Q(-6, -4), and R(1, 1). If you reflect triangle PQR across the x-axis, what will be t

otez555 [7]

Answer:

The coordinates of the vertices of the image will be:

P'=(-3,-8)

Q'=(-6,4)

R'=(1,-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

If you reflect a point P=(x,y) across the x-axis, the coordinates of the image will be P'=(x,-y), then:

P=(-3,8)=(xp,yp)→xp=-3, yp=8→P'=(xp,-yp)→P'=(-3,-8)

Q=(-6,-4)=(xq,yq)→xq=-6, yq=-4→Q'=(xq,-yq)=(-6,-(-4))→Q'=(-6,4)

R=(1,1)=(xr,yr)→xr=1, yr=1→R'=(xr,-yr)→R'=(1,-1)

The Westins and the Shermans live in the same city and pay the same sales tax rate, and both families made $14,000 in taxable pu

Margarita [4]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

D. Yes, because the Shermans paid a higher percentage of their income in sales tax than the Westins did.

The Westins made $86,000 (high income)

The Shermans made $33,000 (low income)

But both paid the same sales tax rate of $14,000.

Regressive tax is applied uniformly and this causes lower-income people to pay a larger share of their income than rich people. It is not a fair way though it seems to be. Most regressive taxes are not income taxes.

Answer:

number 1 is c number 2 is b,c,e number 3 is b

Step-by-step explanation:

1: if you see something to the power you will always think of repeated multiplication off the bat. so you just multiply the coefficient by the amount of the exponent.

2: 1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1*1=1 no

2*2*2*2=16 yes

4*4=16 yes

8*8=64 no

16=16 yes

3: 3/4*3/4*3/4=27/64

hope this helps! have a nice day!
