Find the value of the variable and BC, if B is between A and C. AB = 5x, BC = 3x-1, AC = 47

Mathematics

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

AC = AB + BC

Since we know what each variable equals, we can write out the equation as shown:

47 = 5x + 3x - 1

Combining like terms:

47 = 8x - 1

Add 1 on both sides:

48 = 8x

Divide 8 on both sides:

X = 6

Now that we know what X equals, we can solve BC.

BC = 3(6) - 1

BC = 18 - 1

BC = 17

Therefore BC = 17.

PLEASE ANSWER ANY PROBLEM ASAP THANK YOU SO MUCH
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

1) No

2) Yes

3) angle UXS = 120 degrees

4) arc CB = 40 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

If AB is tangent to the circle, then angle at A would be 90 degrees.

1)

Is 13^2 + 14.6^2 = 19.4^2?

169 + 213.16 = 376.36      No

2)

Is 8^2 + 6^2 = 10^2?

64 + 36 = 100      Yes

3)

arc WS = arc VU + arc TU = 113 degrees

arc ST = arc WV because their chords cross making a pair of vertical angles.

full circle = 360 degrees

360-113 - 113 = 134 degrees

134/2 = 67 degrees for arc ST

arc STU = 67 + 53 = 120 degrees

Angle UXS = 120 degrees

4) arc CB = arc FB =  40 degrees because their chords cross making a pair of vertical angles.

Explain the difference between an arithmetic and geometric sequence
Feliz [49]

Answer:

Arithmetic sequences have a constant difference between consecutive terms. On the other hand, geometric sequences have a constant raito. In an arithmetic sequence, the terms can be determined by adding or subtracting a number to the preceding term, while for geometric sequences, each term is determined by multiplying or dividing a number to the preceding term.

Step-by-step explanation:

Explanation above.

hope this helps :)

Gavin had 20 minutes to do a three-problem quiz. He spent 9 9/10 minutes on question A and 3 3/5 minutes on question B. How much
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

6 1/2 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

9 9/10 = 9.9

3 3/5 = 3.6

9.9 + 3.6 = 13.5

13.5 = 13 1/2

20 - 13.5 = 6.5 = 6 1/2
