Remark
I would have had the answer a whole lot sooner if I would have read the question properly. The figure in the circle is called a cyclic quadrilateral. It has the odd property that the angles that are opposite each other add up to 180o.
So DEB + DCB = 180o
DEB = 180 - 87
DEB = 93o
Note: The arcs marked 60 and 76 have nothing whatever to do with this problem.
Answer:
7
Step-by-step explanation:
Criteria:
• same number of books on each shelf
⇒find a number that divides 58 and 145
• greatest number of books on each shelf
⇒find the greatest number that divides 58 and 145
Find the GCF of 58 and 145.
58 = 2 ⋅ 29
145 = 5 ⋅ 29The GCF of 58 and 145 is 29.
Each shelf will contain 29 books.
There are 203 total books (because 58 + 145 = 203).
Divide 203 by 29 to find the number of shelves there should be.
203 / 29 = 7
Therefore, there will be 7 shelves.
Answer:
Rectangle A's length = 22 ft., Rectangle B's length = 44 ft.
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we know that the length of Rectangle B is twice the length of Rectangle A, we know that 2*(3x + 7) = Rectangle B's length.
We must set this equation to the dimensions already given for Rectangle B, which gives us 2(3x + 7) = 2 (5x - 3).
Using the distributive property gives us 6x + 14 = 10x - 6 and solving for x gives us x = 5.
We must plug five into the original dimensions to find that the lengths of Rectangles A and B are 22 feet and 44 feet respectively.
