Answer:

c)\ 45^\circ

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

A semicircle divided into 8 parts

Required

Angle that can be measured with the piece

First, we calculate the minimum angle that can be calculated.

\theta =\frac{Semi\ circle}{8}

Semicircle = 180^\circ

So, we have:

\theta =\frac{180^\circ}{8}

\theta =22.5^\circ

This implies that all angles that can be measured using the piece must be a multiple of 22.5 not greater than 180 degrees (i.e. not greater than the semicircle)

So, we have:

\theta =22.5^\circ,\ 45^\circ,\ 67.5^\circ,\ 90^\circ,\ 112.5^\circ,\ 135^\circ,\ 157.5^\circ,\ 180^\circ

From the list of options, only 45 degrees appear in the possible values of \theta

Hence:

\theta = 45^\circ

Solve by substitution
goldenfox [79]
Ok here it is:
4x-5y=40
2x+10y=20
I used the second equation and decided to get x
2x+10y=20
Subtract 10y from both sides.
2x=-10y+20
Divide both sides by 2
x=-5y+10
Put that in for x for first equation
4(-5y+10)-5y=40
Distribute the 4
-20y+40 -5y =40
Combine like terms
-25y+40=40
Subtract 40 from both sides
-25y=0
Divide by -25 on both sides
y=0
Substitute the y in for the 2nd equation
2x+10(0)=20
2x=20
Divide both sides by 2
x=10
So x=10 and y=0

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

B. 11

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up a system of equations where a is the number of adults and c is the number of children

a + c = 87

8a + 5c = 468

Solve by substitution by rearranging the first equation, then substituting it in the second equation:

a = 87 - c

Substitute this for a in the second equation, then solve for c:

8(87 - c) + 5c = 468

696 - 8c + 5c = 468

696 - 3c = 468

-3c = -228

c = 76

Then, plug this into the first equation to solve for a:

a + c = 87

a + 76 = 87

a = 11

So, 11 adults attended the carnival.

The correct answer is B, 11
