Answer:

The new punch is 62.5% juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we find how many cups of juice are in the punch. To do this we take 75% of 20, which is 15. We can confirm 15 is correct by doing 15 / 20 = 0.75, or 75%

Next we add four cups of water, bringing our total amount of cups to 24. We doing the last equation from above except with 24 cups instead of 20.

15 / 24 = 0.625, or 62.5%

Given:

m(ar QT) = 220

m∠P = 54

To find:

The measure of arc RS.

Solution:

PQ and PT are secants intersect outside a circle.

If two secants intersects outside a circle, then the measure of the angle formed is one-half the positive difference of the measures of the intercepted arcs.

$$\Rightarrow \angle P = \frac{1}{2} (m \ ar (QT) - m \ ar (RS ))$

$$\Rightarrow 54 = \frac{1}{2} (220- m \ ar (RS ))$

Multiply by 2 on both sides.

$$\Rightarrow 2 \times 54 = 2 \times \frac{1}{2} (220- m \ ar (RS ))$

$$\Rightarrow 108= 220- m \ ar (RS )$

Subtract 220 from both sides.

$$\Rightarrow 108-220= 220- m \ ar (RS )-220$

$$\Rightarrow -112= -m \ ar (RS )$

Multiply by (-1) on both sides.

$$\Rightarrow (-112)\times(-1)= -m \ ar (RS )\times(-1)$

$$\Rightarrow 112= m \ ar (RS )$

The measure of arc RS is 112.

Solve the system using the substituion method -4x+y=8 x-3y=9

lions [1.4K]

Hi there!

x - 3y = 9
x = 9 + 3y

-4x + y = 8
-4(9+3y) + y = 8
-36 - 12y + y = 8
-36 - 11y = 8
-11y = 44
-y = 4
y = -4

x - 3y = 9
x - 3(-4) = 9
x + 12 = 9
x = 21

So, your answers are y = -4 and x = 21.

Hope this helps!

How many sixteenths are in 15/16?

klasskru [66]

The answer is 15.

One-sixteenths is 1/16. Let's rewrite 15/16:

15/16 = (15 * 1) / 16 = 15 * 1/16

So, it is 15 times of one-sixteenths, or in other words 15 sixteenths.
