Answers:
5. x = 1
6. y = 11.5
Step-by-step explanation:
For question 5, you can use power of a point which describes the relationship of two secants intersecting inside a circle. You get the formula:
AC * CD = BC * CE
You can substitute the values you are given to get:
2 * 4 = x * 8
This gives you x = 1
For question 6, you can use another formula in power of a point that describes two secants intersecting in the exterior of a circle. You get the formula:
GH * GJ = GI * GK
Using segment addition postulate, you get:
GJ = GH + HJ = 5 + 16 = 21
GK = GI + IK = 6 + y --> y + 6
Now, substitute into the equation from power of a point:
5 * 21 = 6 * (y + 6)
105 = 6 * (y + 6)
17.5 = y + 6
y = 11.5
X=number total of student at the school.
70% of x=161
can suggest this equation:
(70/100)x=161
0.7x=161
x=161/0.7=230
Answer: the school has 230 students

Answer:
The correct answer is letter B.
Step-by-step explanation:
Contractionary monetary policies are instruments used by the FED to decrease the amount of money in an economy. There are three classic instruments of monetary policy: open market, rediscount policy and compulsory deposit. The open market is about buying and selling federal government bonds. Thus, by selling bonds, the bank will be increasing the supply of bonds in the economy, on the other hand, is withdrawing dollars, that is, will be withdrawing currency from the economy, resulting in a contractionary monetary policy. Rediscount refers to the interest rate on loans that the FED lends to financial institutions. In situations of illiquidity, banks turn to the FED for loans. In this case, the FED, by increasing the rediscount rate, hindering the supply of money to the institutions and thus exerting a contractionary monetary policy. Finally, bank reserves refer to the part of banks' monetary reserves that are required to be deposited with the FED. Thus, by increasing the percentage of such reserves, the FED is exerting a contractionary fiscal policy, as it decreases the total amount of commercial banks' borrowing resources.
