Answer:

So your walk of 1 mile West is a complete circle. You then walk 1 mile North, which brings you back to your starting point, (1 + 1/(2pi)) miles from the South Pole. The obvious answer is the North Pole. You're either on the North Pole, or somewhere very near (about 840 feet or less) the South Pole.-step explanation:

A student solved z + (-0.72) = -2.5 for z using the following steps.

prisoha [69]

The student's error was in first step where he added -0.72 instead of 0.72

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation;

z + (-0.72) = -2.5

When solving for z, eliminate the other numbers from one side.

Step 1: z + (−0.72) + (−0.72) = −2.5 + (−0.72)

In this step, the student should have added 0.72 because -0.72 was already present in the equation and to eliminate it, he should have add same number with opposite sign.

According to this Step, -0.72 and -0.72 would have been added, because according to mathematics, two numbers with minus sign are added and the sign remains same.

The student's error was in first step where he added -0.72 instead of 0.72

I am stuck on 14 and 15 as they do not have a straight line going through to help me, anybody know how to ?? thanks !

Answer:

14. x=21, GK=167°, HJ=98°, HGJ=262°, GKJ=201°

15. x=9, AD=108°, BC=23°, DC=139°, DBC=221°

Step-by-step explanation:

In each case, the sum of the arcs around the circle is 360°.

14. 61 +(5x -7) +34 +(9x -22) = 360

14x = 294 . . . . . subtract 66, simplify

x = 21 . . . . . . . . divide by 14

(5x -7) = 98

(9x -22) = 167

x = 21
arc GK = 167°
arc HJ = 98°
arc HGJ = 360° -98° = 262°
arc GKJ = 167° +34° = 201°

15. 90 +(2x +5) +(17x -14) +(12x) = 360

31x = 279 . . . . subtract 81, simplify

x = 9 . . . . . . . . divide by 31

(2x+5) = 23

(17x -14) = 139

(12x) = 108

x = 9
arc AD = 108°
arc BC = 23°
arc DC = 139°
arc DBC = 360° -139° = 221°

olasank [31]

Answer:

3 teaspoons

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we need 1 teaspoon for 2 cups, I would only assume we would keep adding a teaspoon for every 2 additional cups of chocolate chips.

2 + 2 + 2 = 6

We would need an additional teaspoon of salt for each of the sets of two.
