Answer:

65°

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure we can see a circle.

It is given that, measure of arc AD = 80° therefore m<ACD = 80/2 = 40°

Also m<D = 75°

<u>To find the measure of <DCQ</u>

We know that, an angle made by a tangent and chord is equal to the angle made by the angle made by the chord on other side of the circle.

Here m<DCQ = m<CAD

By using angle sum property,

m<CAD + m<ACD + m<D = 180

m<CAD + 40 + 75 = 180

m<CAD + 115 = 180

m<CAD = 180 - 115 = 65°

Therefore m<DCQ = m< CAD = 65°

The correct answer is third option.

An integer is chosen between 0 and 100. What is the probability that it is divisible by 7?

IgorC [24]

Assuming 0 and 100 are included in the possible choices:

There are $\left\lfloor\dfrac{101}7\right\rfloor=14$ multiples of 7 between 0 and 100, so there is a $\dfrac{14}{101}\approx0.1386$ probability of choosing a multiple of 7.

Abby needs to take a taxi to go to the movies, the taxi charges 4.00 flag fee for the pick up and then 2.75 for each mile driven

AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

x = miles driven

4.00 + 2.75 * x = 20.50

2.75x = 20.50 - 4.00 = 16.50

x = 16.50/2.75 = 6 miles

1 Batch Fruit Salad contains : 1 1/2 c apples, 1 3/4 c grapes, 1/2 c raisins, 2 2/4 c bananas, 3/4 c coconut, 1 2/4 c cherries a

rosijanka [135]

The batch of fruit salad has an equal amount of apples and cherries. This is because there are 1 1/2 c of apples and 1 2/4 c of cherries. the 1 1/2 is already simplified but the 1 2/4 is not. 1 2/4 is the same as 1 1/2, therefore apples and cherries have equal amounts.

Answer:

$47,520

Step-by-step explanation:

the area of a polygon is/

A= perimeter X apothem /2

A=500

apothem = 10

500 = (P * 10)/2

P =100

B. 100*7.95 = $795

60*100= 6,000

6,000 * $7.95=

Luda [366]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

You know that angle Y is a right angle because XY is the radius and YZ is a tangent to the circle. So, you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the third side:

XY^2+4^2=5^2

XY^2+16=25

XY^2=9

XY=3
