Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

ST and SU are tangents to the $\odot L$ from the point S to the points T and U respectively.
Measures of the tangents drawn from external point to a circle are equal.
$\therefore ST = SU$
$\therefore 7x - 3= 5x+1$
$\therefore 7x - 5x=3+1$
$\therefore 2x=4$
$\therefore x=\frac{4}{2}$
$\therefore x={2}$

alexdok [17]

Answer:

$75.58

The amount spent of $75.58 is most likely an outlier

Step-by-step explanation:

An outliers are unusual values in a dataset, they are data values that are extremely higher or extremely lower when compared to the other values in a data (data points that are far from other data points)

For the case above, give a dataset;

$32.92 $14.14 $30.80 $28.34 $75.58 $36.33 $33.51 $22.94

$75.58 is extremely far from other value. So $75.58 is an outlier in the given dataset.

Answer:

C = 2πr

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that, the perimeter of a figure is equal to the sum of all sides.

A circle having no sides.

The perimeter of a circle = The circumference of the circle

The formula for the circumference of the circle is given by :

C = 2πr

Where

r is the radius of the circle

Hence, this is the required solution.

A nature center offers 2 guided walks. The morning walk is two-third mile. The evening walk is three-sixths mile. Which walk is

MArishka [77]

Answer:

Evening walk is shorter.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that a nature center offers 2 guided walks. The morning walk is two-third mile. The evening walk is three-sixths mile. We are asked to find the shorter walk.

Let us compare both fractions by making the same denominator.

$\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{2}{3}$

$\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{2\times2}{3\times2}$

$\text{Two-thirds}=\frac{4}{6}$

$\text{Three-sixth}=\frac{3}{6}$

Upon making common denominator, we can see that two-thirds are equal to four sixths.

Since three-sixths is less than four-sixths, therefore, evening walk is shorter.

We will draw two rectangles, one with 6 sub-parts and other with three sub-parts.

We will shade 2 parts out of 3 sub-parts to represent 2/3 and shade 3 parts out of 6 sub-parts to represent 3/6.

Then we will further divide three sub-parts into 6 sub-parts as shown in the diagram that will represent 4/6.
