Pay attention here because I'm adding an extra letter to our circle to help keep track of the values in our formula. OUTSIDE of the intercepted arc I'm adding the point E. So the major arc is arc BEG and the minor arc is arc BG. The formula then for us is ∠

. We just don't have values for the arcs yet. If the measure of the central angle is 4x+238, then the measure of arcBG is also 4x+238. Around the outside of the circle is 360°. So we will use it in an expression. ArcBEG=360-(4x+238). Fitting that into our formula we have
![2x+146= \frac{1}{2}[(360-4x-238)-(4x+238)]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=2x%2B146%3D%20%5Cfrac%7B1%7D%7B2%7D%5B%28360-4x-238%29-%284x%2B238%29%5D%20)
. Doing all the simplifying inside there we have

and

. Multiply both sides by 2 to get rid of the fraction: 4x+292=-8x-116. Combine like terms to get 12x = -408 and divide to solve for x. x = -34. Fourth choice down from the top.
I'm going to write out the work and take a pic. hope this helps you understand if not, feel free to ask me Q's! :)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x² + 10x + 25
a² +2ab + b² = (a + b)²
b² = 25
b = √25
b = 5
2ab = 2*x*5 = 10x
Answer:
Town B will eventually overtake Town A
in 1990 Town B will have a larger population
Step-by-step explanation:
To work out how big town A will be in 1990 you need to do 200 + (200x40) because you add 40 years worth of increased population onto the starting population
To work out how big town B will be in 1990 you need to use the equation 200 X 1.1^40 because to work out plus 10 percent you need to do 1.1 and do it to the power of 40 for how many years
in 1990 town a will have a population of 8200 and town B will have a population of 9051.85
