<em>x</em> ° = 1/2 (130° - 30°) = 50°

(due to a theorem about intersecting secants/tangents)

(11) The labeled angle subtends a minor arc of meaure 120°, which means the larger arc has a measure of 360° - 120° = 240°. Then

<em>x</em> ° = 1/2 (240° - 120°) = 60°

(due to the same theorem)

(13) The labeling here is a bit confusing. I'm not sure what the 70° is referring to. It occurs to me that it might be info from a different exercise, so that <em>y </em>° is the measure of the angle made by the tangent to the circle with a vertex of the pentagon, and <em>x</em> ° is the measure of each arc that passes over an edge of the pentagon.

Each arc makes up 1/5 of the circle's circumferece, so

<em>x</em> ° = 360°/5 = 72°

The pentagon is regular, so each of its interior angles have the same measure of 108°. (Why 108°? Each exterior angle measures 360°/5 = 72°, since the exterior angles sum to 360°. Interior and exterior angles are supplementary, so the interior angles measure 180° - 72° = 108° each.)

The angles formed by the tangent to the circle are supplementary, so that

<em>y</em> ° + 108° + <em>y</em> ° = 180°

2<em>y</em> ° = 72°

<em>y</em> ° = 36°

Together two ferries can transport a day's cargo in 7 hours. The larger ferry can transport cargo three times faster than the sm
Ksju [112]

Answer:

9 hours, 20 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

When two ferries work together, they transport a day's cargo in 7 hours

The speed proportion or ratio of larger ferry to smaller ferry is given as 3 : 1

The sum of the ratio = 4 (3 + 1)

This means that it will take the smaller ferry = 7 x 4 hours to work alone = 28 hours, since the larger ferry is faster by 3.

Therefore, when larger ferry works alone, it will take it (7 x 4)/3 = 9.33 hours.

9.33 hours = 9 hours, 20 minutes.

Find the product. state your answer in standard form <br><br> (x+7)(x squared + 6x - 8)
USPshnik [31]

Answer:

{x}^{3}  +  13 {x}^{2}   + 34x  - 56

Step-by-step explanation:

(x + 7)( {x}^{2}  + 6x - 8) \\  = x ( {x}^{2}  + 6x - 8)  +  7( {x}^{2}  + 6x - 8)  \\  =  {x}^{3}  + 6 {x}^{2}  - 8x + 7 {x}^{2}  + 42x - 56 \\  = {x}^{3}  +  6 {x}^{2}  + 7 {x}^{2} + 42x - 8x - 56 \\  = {x}^{3}  +  13 {x}^{2}   + 34x  - 56 \\
