I’m hoping you are talking about:
Factor -1/2 out of -1/2x + 6
If so then the answer is
-1/2(x-3)
Answer:
mDF = 90°
(Assuming arc mCE is 5x + 10)
Step-by-step explanation:
When we have two chords crossing in a circle, there is a property where the angle in the cross point is equal half the sum of the corresponding arcs.
So in this case, we have:
70° = (mCE + mDF)/2
Assuming mCE is 5x + 10, we have:
70 = (5x + 10 + 11x + 2)/2
70 = (16x + 12)/2
70 = 8x + 6
8x = 64
x = 8
So the arc mDF is:
mDF = 11x + 2 = 11 * 8 + 2 = 90°
X+y=70
x=2y-5
x=larger number
y=smaller number
now plug in the value of x to only have one variable in the equation...
Way to solve for y:
(2y-5)+y=70
3y-5=70
add 5 on both sides...
3y=75
divide by 3 on both sides
y=25
1st way to solve for x:
now plug in y in the original equation...
x+25=70
subtract 25 on both sides...
x=45
2nd way to solve for x:
plug in y for the second equation...
x=25(2)-5
x=50-5
x=45
answer: the two numbers are 45 and 25.
Answer:
1:6
5:30
?:426
You would take the ratio of each one which is simply 1:6, so to reduce ?:426 into 1:6, you would divide 426/6=71, so it would be
71:426
