8 0

let's think about it, let's divide say hmmm 15 by 0, in a fraction

\bf \cfrac{\textit{part of a pie}}{\textit{whole pie}}\qquad \cfrac{15}{0}\implies \cfrac{\textit{taking 15 pieces}}{\textit{from a whole pie that's 0, or not there}}

now, how can you take any pieces of a pie that's non-existent? I mean that requires magic!!.

now, let's do it using a simple long division, 15 ÷ 0, so 0 is the divisor, anything times 0 is 0, what is our first digit in the quotient to get 15? 0 * 15 = 0, 0 * 1,000,000 = 0, there isn't any number we can possible use to get a quotient.

What is the measure of arc AC?
8_murik_8 [283]

If Im not mistaken, the answer should be d because if you add all the degrees up, then you would get 222. And if you subtract 360 from 222 you get 138. I hope this helps. :)

Thea has a key on her calculator marked $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$. If an integer is displayed, pressing the $\textcolor
worty [1.4K]

Answer:

$9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Thea enters a positive integer into her calculator, then squares it, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key, then squares the result, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key again such that the calculator displays final number as $243$.

To find: number that Thea originally entered

Solution:

The final number is $243$.

As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,

the number before $243$ must be $324$.

As previously the number was squared, so the number before $324$ must be $18$.

As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,

the number before $18$ must be $81$

As previously the number was squared, so the number before $81$ must be $9$.
