As given that
∠ASB = 126º, making the angular measure of the intercepted arc:
so 

<span>∠ACB = 180º - 126º = 54º = 3π/10 
so correct option is D
hope it helps</span>

Answer:

Option D. 54°

Step-by-step explanation:

The farthest distance a satellite signal can directly reach is the length of the segment tangent to the curve of the earth as shown in figure attached.

Angle formed by the tangent satellite signals is angle PSQ = 126°

As we know from outside angle theorem formed by tangents

m∠PSQ + m(minor arc PQ) = 180°

126° + m(PQ) = 180°

m(PQ) = 180 - 126 = 54°

Therefore answer is length of the intercepted arc will be 54°

Option D. 54° is the correct option

Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer:

16 > 11

Step-by-step explanation:

7 + (16 - 7) = 3 + 8

7 + 9 = 3 + 8

16 = 3 + 8

16 ≠ 11

or

16 > 11

Aisha just received a paycheck from her new job she spends some of it buying music online and saves the rest in a bank account h
postnew [5]
Set y equal to 25 because this is the amount of money Aisha wants to save. This gives you 25 = 50-1.99x. Now we can solve for x, which is the variable. First, subtract 50 from both sides so that you can get the variable, x, by itself. After subtracting 50 from both sides, you are left with -25 = -1.99x . If it is easier for you, you can put the numbers on opposite sides so it reads -1.99x = -25 . Now divide both sides by -1.99 so that x is by itself. So -1.99x ÷-1.99 = 1x which is equal to just x and -25÷-1.99 = about 12.56, which is a decimal. (Remember that when you divide a negative number by a negative number, it becomes a positive number) Finally we have x = 12.56 (or 1x = 12.56) with 12.56 being equal to the number of songs Aisha can buy if she also wants to save money in her bank account. However, nobody can buy only .56 or part of a song. Round down to the nearest whole number, which is 12. This is how many songs she can buy and it makes sense because it is 12 entire songs, not 12 and just the chorus of a song. If you want to check, you can plug in 12 for x and she shouod have a little more than $25 in her bank account. So Aisha can buy 12 songs is she wants to save $25. I hope this helped :)

Emery Mining Inc. recently reported $147,500 of sales, $75,500 of operating costs other than depreciation, and $10,200 of deprec
Molodets [167]

Answer:

net income is $48452.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales =$147500

subtract operating expenses

-$75500 =$72000

subtract non- operating costs

depreciation -$10200 =$61800

-interest expense payable (16500*7,23%)$1196.25=63603.75

from profit before tax deduct income taxes =63603.75*25%=15150.9375

Net Income is therefore $63603.75-$15150.9375 = $48452.81

Which of the following are solutions to the equation below? Check all that apply. 4x2 + 4x + 1 = 9​
Vilka [71]

Answer:

4x^2 + 4x + 1=9

4x^2 + 4x - 8=0

Dividing both sides by 4

x^2 + x -2=0

It can be written as

x^2 + 2x - x - 2=0

x(x+2) -1(x+2)=0

taking (x+2) as common on LHS

Then, (x+2)(x-1)=0

Now first equate x+2=0  ie x=-2

then                 x-1=0 ie x=1

Therefore, x has two values(roots)

that is -2,1
