Calculate the measure of arc AC if the measure of arc CD is 170 degrees and arc AB is 80 and AB||CD.

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

AC = 55°

Step-by-step explanation:

In this geometry, arcs AC and BD have the same measure. The sum of the parts of arc CD will total the measure of CD.

AC + AB + BD = CD

2AC +80 = 170

AC = 110/2 = 55

The measure of arc AC is 55°.

Answer:

The total number of marbles is $4m+3$

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a typo error in the question.

Helena lost her marbles. But then she found them and put them in 4 bags with m marbles in each bag.

So, total marbles are = 4m

She had 3 marbles left over that didn't fit in the bags.

So, the total number of marbles is $4m+3$

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (6-8) and (10,-8)?

romanna [79]

Answer:

The slope of the line that passes through the points would be 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Lets use the formula : y2-y1/x2-x1

In this case lets let y2 be -8 and y1 be -8

And lets let x2 be 6 and x1 be 10, that would look like..

-8-(-8)/6-10

which equals...

0/-4 = 0

We know that the slope of the line is 0

Part A: Find the LCM of 7 and 12. Show your work. (3 points)

inna [77]

Answer:

A. 84; B. 8; C. 8 × 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A. Least common multiple

Step 1. List the prime factors of each.

7 = 7

12 = 2 × 2 × 3

Step 2: Multiply each factor the greatest number of times it occurs in either number.

7 has one 7; 12 has two 2s and one 3.

LCM = 7 × 2 × 2 × 3

LCM = 7 × 12

LCM = 84

Part B. Highest common factor

Find all the factors of 56 and 96.

Factors of 56: 1, 2, 4, 7, 8, 14, 28

Factors of 96: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 16, 24, 32, 48

The highest factor that in both 56 and 96 is 8.

Part C. Factoring

56 + 96 = 8(7 + 12) = 8 × 19

The GCF is 8.

19 = 7 + 12 is the sum of two numbers that do not have a common factor.
