A beetle is down in the ground and he digs down to find an ant. A beetle starts at 2 inches below ground level. The beetle digs

down 1/3 of the distance, d, that the ant is below ground level. The beetle is now at 4 inches below ground level. What is the distance, d, the ant is below ground level? (a) Write an equation that best represents how to find the distance that the ant is below ground level. (b) Solve the equation from part (a). Show your work. What is the distance, d, that the ant is below ground level? ​

Answer:

1 - (1/3 x 2) = 4 inches (The equation may not be exactly correct but the answer of 4 inches is.)

Step-by-step explanation:

The beetle has 4 inches, 2 of which it already had before hand.

4 - 2 = 2

1/3 distance that the ant is would be 2 inches, so then you would find the number that 2 is one third of.

1/3 = 2/6

1 - 2/6 = 4/6

The ant is 4 inches below ground level.

Hey can you please help
AfilCa [17]

Answer:

Measure of major arc BDC = 260.5°       Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that, measure of central angle ∠BAE = 80.5°

Firstly we will find the measure of arc BE .  

The measure of arc BE  is same as the measure of its central angle.

So, measure of minor BE arc = 80.5°

measure of arc EDC = 180°  because of half circle

So,

measure of major arc BDC = 180° + 80.5° = 260.5°       option A

That's the final answer.

2 3 E 4 5 I 6 8 what comes next
Georgia [21]
I think it is "N". This, because (2+3)=5 and E is the 5th letter of the alphabet. 4+5= 9 and I is the 9th letter of the alphabet. (6+8)= 14 So N should be correct I think. :)
