9514 1404 393

Answer:

  x = 100°

  y = 95°

Step-by-step explanation:

It is probably easier to find y first. Opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral are supplementary, so ...

  y = 180° -85° = 95°

The measure of an arc is double the measure of the inscribed angle subtending it. The arc subtended by angle y is ...

  90° +x = 2y

  x = 190° -90° = 100°

_____

<em>Additional comment</em>

The rule cited above regarding opposite angles of an inscribed quadrilateral comes from the theorem regarding inscribed angles. In the given diagram, the diagonal from the bottom vertex to the top one is a chord that divides the circle into two arcs. Their sum is 360°. The inscribed angle theorem tells you ...

  2y +2(85°) = 360°

  y + 85° = 180° . . . . . . . divide by 2; opposite angles are supplementary

In Crestview Middle School, 12 out of 16 students are right handed. If there are 400 students in the school, how many are right
DerKrebs [107]

Answer:

the answer is 300

Step-by-step explanation

there are 16 people so we divide that by the total number of students

400 divided by 16 = 25

since there are 12 right handed in each group we multpily it by 12

25 x 12 = 300

and theres your answer!

If x Is a real number such that x3 = 64, the x2 + x equals what?
Annette [7]

Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

Assuming that the equation is x³ = 64, that can be solved by putting cube root on both sides like so: ∛(x³) = ∛64, which simplifies to <em>x = 4</em>.

Plugging that into our expression gives us <em>4² + 4</em>, which is 20.

In an arithmetic sequence, a17 = -40 and
Viktor [21]

Answer:

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Before we can generate the recursive sequence, we need to find the nth term of the given sequence.

nth term of an AP is given as:

Tn = a+(n-1)d

If a17 = -40

T17 = a+(17-1)d = -40

a+16d = -40 ...(1)

If a28 = -73

T28 = a+(28-1)d = -73

a+27d = -73 ...(2)

Solving both equations simultaneously using elimination method.

Subtracting 1 from 2 we have:

27d - 16d = -73-(-40)

11d = -73+40

11d = -33

d = -3

Substituting d = -3 into 1

a+16(-3) = -40

a - 48 = -40

a = -40+48

a = 8

Given a = 8, d = -3, the nth term of the sequence will be

Tn = 8+(n-1) (-3)

Tn = 8+(-3n+3)

Tn = 8-3n+3

Tn = 11-3n

Given Tn = 11-3n and d = -3

Tn-1 = Tn - d... (3)

Tn-1 = 11-3n +3

Tn-1 = 14-3n

Tn-2 = Tn-2d...(4)

Tn-2 = 11-3n-2(-3)

Tn-2 = 11-3n+6

Tn-2 = 17-3n

From 3, d = Tn - Tn-1

From 4, d = (Tn - Tn-2)/2

Equating both common difference

(Tn - Tn-2)/2 = Tn - Tn-1

Tn - Tn-2 = 2(Tn - Tn-1)

Tn - Tn-2 = 2Tn-2Tn-1

2Tn-Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

The recursive formula will be

Tn = 2Tn-1 - Tn-2

Help me i think its add 24 to both sides
umka2103 [35]

It is given in the question that

Steven is solving the equation

3(8-2x)+40=34

He begins with the following two steps.

Step 1: 3(8)+3(-2x)+40=34  Step 2: 24-6x+40=34

And we have to find , what will be the next step in solving the equation.

First we combine the like terms. And the like terms are 24 and 40. So we have to add 24 and 40. And that will be the next step.

So the correct option is the last option.
