Answer:
a) x = 30°
b) mRS = x = 30°
mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°
Question:
The complete question as found on Chegg website:
In the diagram below, secants PT and PU have been drawn from exterior point P such that the four arcs
intercepted have the following ratio of measurements:
mRS : mST :MTU : mUR=1:4:4:3
(a) If mRS = x, then write an equation that could be used to solve for x
and find the value of x.
(b) State the measure of each of the four arcs.
mRS =
mST =
MTU
MUR =
Step-by-step explanation:
Find attached the diagram related to the question
mRS : mST : mTU : mUR = 1:4:4:3
Since mRS = x
Writing the ratios of the measure of angle in terms of mRS:
mST = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x
mTU = 4× mRS = 4×x = 4x
mUR= 3× mRS = 3×x = 3x
The sum of measure the 4 measures of arc = 360° (sum of angle in a circle)
mRS + mST + mTU + mUR = 360°
x + 4x + 4x + 3x = 360
12x = 360
x = 360/12
x = 30°
b) The measure of angle
mRS = x = 30°
mST = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mTU = 4x = 4(30°) = 120°
mUR = 3x = 3(30°) = 90°
Option A
Elena need to ride around the loop four or more times
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that Elena plans to ride her bicycle 5 miles to a park and then ride several times around a loop in the park that is 3 miles long
Then she will ride the same way home
She wants to ride a total of at least 22 miles
<em><u>Given inequality is:</u></em>
3t + 10 > 22
Where "t" is the number of times Elena rides around the loop
<em><u>Solve fot "t" in given inequality</u></em>
3t + 10 > 22
Subtract 10 both sides
3t + 10 - 10 > 22 - 10
3t > 12
Divide by 3 both sides
t > 4
The solution is all real numbers greater than or equal to 4
Which means 4 or more times
Therefore, Option A is correct.
The function y = 2.5x + 500 represents the total number of miles if the motor car race is 500 miles long, option (d) is correct.
<h3>What is a function?</h3>
It is defined as a special type of relationship, and they have a predefined domain and range according to the function every value in the domain is related to exactly one value in the range.
We have:
y represents the number of miles a motor car has left to go in the race
x represents the number of laps completed by the motor car
The total number of miles if we consider only circular speedways = 2.5x
The total number of miles:
y = 2.5x + 500 (because 500 is the constant)
Thus, the function y = 2.5x + 500 represents the total number of miles if the motor car race is 500 miles long option (d) is correct.

Answer:
22) y=1/4x-3/4
23) y=-1/3x-9
Step-by-step explanation:
22 ) Using the rise/run strategy, we can find the slope. From (-1,-1) you go up 1 unit to reach the same level as (3,0), and go right 4 to reach (3,0). This means your rise/run is 1/4, which is also your slope. Now to find the y-intercept, we can use the equation format y=mx+b. m is your slope, which we have, and b is the y intercept. With y and x, we can substitute in a point we already know, for example (-1,-1) as (x,y). When everything we know is substituted in, we get -1=(1/4)(-1)+b. According to PEMDAS, we should now multiply 1/4 and -1 to get (-1/4). Now our equation is -1=-1/4+b. To isolate B, we need to add 1/4 on both sides. As a result, you'll get -3/4. Your y intercept is -3/4. Thus, the final equation is y=1/4x-3/4.
23) This question is a lot more straight forward than question 22. In this question, you're already given everything in the equation to substitute everything in. Like I said before, the format for a linear equation is y=mx+b where m is your slope and b is your y intercept. This question already gives you both the slope and y intercept, so you can just fill it in. (m = -1/3, b= -9) Thus, you'll get y=-1/3x-9.
