2r +2s = 50
2r - s = 17

Multiply the top by -1
-2r - 2s = -50
2r - s = 17
-3s = -33
s = 11

Then plug 11 in the first equation to get r
2r + 2(11) = 50
2r + 22 = 50
2r = 28
r = 14

so 11 and 14

R = 14
s = 11

2(14)+2(11)=50
28+22=50

2(14) - 11 =17
28 - 11 =17

AB is a diameter of a circle, center O. C is a point on the circumference of the circle, such that

Solnce55 [7]

Given:

AB is the diameter of a circle.

m∠CAB = 26°

To find:

The measure of m∠CBA.

Solution:

Angle formed in the diameter of a circle is always 90°.

⇒ m∠ACB = 90°

In triangle ACB,

Sum of the angles in the triangle = 180°

m∠CAB + m∠ACB + m∠CBA = 180°

26° + 90° + m∠CBA = 180°

116° + m∠CBA = 180°

Subtract 116° from both sides.

116° + m∠CBA - 116° = 180° - 116°

m∠CBA = 64°

The measure of m∠CBA is 64°.

Your class hopes to collect at least 325 cans of food for the annual food drive. there were 135 cans donated the first week and

vampirchik [111]

They have collected $135+89=224$ cans until now. To equal 325, they need $325-224=101$ cans more.

Let C be the number needed to equate atleast 325.

$135+89+C\geq 325$

If we solve the inequality in part A, we can find minimum number of C to meet the goal of 325 cans.

$135+89+C\geq 325\\224+C\geq325\\C\geq325-224\\C\geq101$

<em>So they need minimum 101 to complete the target and more than that to surpass.</em>

ANSWER: 101 cans are needed to meet the goal and more than that to surpass the goal.
