Answer:

A) $525,000

B) $975,000

C) 35%

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve A) and B), divide the total amount of money by the sum of the parts of the ratio (7 + 13 = 20, in this case), and then multiply this by the person's portion of the ratio. This is because you are finding the worth of '1 part', and are then multiplying it to find how much money all their parts are worth together.

To solve C), take a person's portion of the ratio, divide it by the sum of the portions of the ratio and then multiply by 100% to get a percentage. In this case, 7/(7 + 13) * 100% = 7/20 * 100% = 0.35 * 100% = 35%.

HELP NEED NOW, WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST: The difference of measures between the arcs subtended by chord AB is 160°. Line l is tangen
omeli [17]

Answer:

  50°

Step-by-step explanation:

As usual, the diagram is not drawn to scale.

The chord divides the circle into two arcs that have a sum of 360°. If we let "a" represent the measure of the smaller arc, then we have ...

  a + (a+160°) = 360°

  2a = 200° . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 160°

  a = 100°

The measure of the angle at A is 1/2 the measure of the subtended arc:

  acute ∠A = a/2 = (1/2)·100° = 50°

_____

<em>Comment on this geometry</em>

Consider a different inscribed angle, one with vertex V on the circle and subtending the same short arc subtended by chord AB. Then you know that the angle at V is half the measure of arc AB. This is still true as point V approaches (and becomes) point A on the circle. When V becomes A, segment VA becomes tangent line <em>l</em>, and you have the geometry shown here.

Solve the inequality
Naily [24]

Answer:

16(1/4x-1/2)>24-2x

Use the distributive property on the left side:

4x -8 > 24-2x

Add 2x to each side:

6x -8 > 24

Add 8 to each side:

6x >32

Divide both sides by 6:

x > 32/6 reduces to 16/3
