Answer:

The value of a is 63° and the value of b is 27°

Step-by-step explanation:

In the given figure

∵ OA, OB, and OC are radii of the circle O

→ The radii of a circle are equal

∴ OA = OB = OC

In Δ AOC

∵ OA = OC

∴ Δ AOC is an isosceles triangle

→ Base angles of the isosceles triangle are equal

∵ ∠OAC and ∠OCA are the base angles of the triangle

∴ m∠OAC = m∠OCA

∵ m∠OAC = a°

∴ m∠OCA = a°

→ The sum of angles in any triangle is 180°

∵ a° + a° + m∠AOC = 180°

∵ m∠AOC = 54°

∴ a° + a° + 54 = 180°

→ Add the like terms

∴ 2a° + 54 = 180°

→ Subtract 54 from both sides

∴ 2a° = 126°

→ Divide both sides by 2

∵ m∠OAC = m∠OCA = 126 ÷ 2

∴ a° = 63

∴ The value of a is 63°

In ΔBOC

∵ OB = OC

∴ Δ BOC is an isosceles triangle

→ Base angles of the isosceles triangle are equal

∵ ∠OBC and ∠OCB are the base angles of the triangle

∴ m∠OBC = m∠OCB

∵ m∠OBC = b°

∴ m∠OCB = b°

∵ ∠AOC is an exterior angle of ΔBOC at the vertex O

→ The measure of the exterior angle equals the sum of the measure

    of the opposite interior angles to this vertex

∵ ∠OBC and ∠OCB are the opposite interior angle of ∠AOC

∴ m∠OBC + m∠OCB = m∠AOC

→ Substitute their measures

∵ b° + b° = 54°

→ Add the like terms

∴ 2b° = 54

→ Divide both sides by 2

∴ b° = 27

∴ The value of b is 27°

The sales tax on clothing in Louisiana is 4% . Calculate how much tax you need to pay on a dress if it costs $19.50 before befor
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

.78 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the tax amount on any number, divide that number by 100 and then multiple it by the tax percentage.

In this case that would look like: $19.50/100 times 4 =.78

The graph of F(x), shown below, resembles the graph of G(x) = x2, but it has
mariarad [96]

Answer:F(x)=-x2-3

Step-by-step explanation:We are given a function:

The graph of  is also shown in the given question figure.

It is a parabola with vertex at (0,0).

Sign of  is positive, that is why the parabola opens up.

General equation of parabola is given as:

Here, in G(x), a = 1

Vertex (h,k) is (0,0).

As seen from the question figure,

The graph of F(x) opens down that is why it will have:

Sign of  as negative. i.e.

And vertex is at (0,-3)

Putting the values of a and vertex coordinates,

Hence, the equation of parabola will become:

ioda
The answer is 8
Here's why:
{ ( \frac{( {6}^{7}) \times ( {3}^{3})  }{(  {6}^{6}) \times ( {3}^{4}  ) } )}^{3}  =   \\ ( \frac{6}{3} ) ^{3}  =  \\ \frac{216}{27}  = 8
The exponents are subtracted one from another when divided.
\frac{ a ^{b} }{ {a}^{c} } =  {a}^{b - c}
We can look at the problem this way:
( \frac{6^{7} }{6 ^{6} }  \times  \frac{3^{3} }{ {3}^{4} } ) = (6^{7 - 6}  \times  {3}^{3 - 4} ) =  \\ ({6}^{1}  \times  {3}^{ - 1} )
Since we have the power of -1 on the 3, we apply this rule:
{a}^{ - b}  =  \frac{1}{ {a}^{b} }
Also this rule because we have the power of 1 on the 6:
{a}^{1}  = a
Then we get this:
(6 \times  \frac{1}{3} )^{3}  = ( \frac{6}{3} )^{3}
We apply the rule:
( \frac{a}{b}) ^{c}   =  \frac{ {a}^{c} }{ {b}^{c} }
We get this:
\frac{{6}^{3} }{ {3}^{3} } =  \frac{216}{27}  = 8

Answer:

x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

2^x = 1

The only way a number can equal one when there's an exponent is when the exponent is 0

x = 0

2^0 = 1
