Answer:

the ratio would be 6.75:4.5:3:2

Step-by-step explanation:

replace d and c with

d=2 and c=3

Then using proportion multiplication, you will find that b is 4.5

now replace all b with 4.5.

Then again using proportion multiplication, you will get a is 6.75.

Plug in a, b, c, d in the ratio and you get 6.75:4.5:3:2

Eight inches of snow fell in five hours. Write the number of inches per hour.

DedPeter [7]

The answer is 1.6

How I figured it out:

I divided 8 by 5, which gave me 1.6

To make sure this was right, I multiplied 1.6 by 5, which gave me an answer of 8 or other known as 8 inches.

In conclusion, the number of inces per hour is 1.6

For questions 8 – 10, answer the questions about tangent-tangent angles.

olchik [2.2K]

Answer:

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Step-by-step explanation:

8). Formula for the angle formed outside the circle by the intersection of two tangents or two secants is,

Angle formed by two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(220-140)$

= $\frac{1}{2}(80)$

= 40°

9). Following the same rule as above,

Angle formed between two tangents = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Difference of intercepted arcs})$

125 = $\frac{1}{2}[m(\text{major arc})-m(\text{minor arc})]$

250 = $[m(\text{arc ZWY})-m(\text{arc ZY})]$

250 = m(arc ZWY) - 55

m(arc ZWY) = 305°

Therefore, measure of arc ZWY = 305° will be the answer.

10). m(arc BAC) = $\frac{1}{2}([m(\text{arc BDC})-m(\text{arc BC})])$

= $\frac{1}{2}(254-106)$

= $\frac{148}{2}$

= 74°

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point (- 5, - 6) and is parallel to the line 4x - 5y = 35

Elena L [17]

Answer:

4x - 5y = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Any line parallel to 4x - 5y = 35 will have the same equation EXCEPT that the constant will be different.

Starting with 4x - 5y = 35, replace x with the given x-coordinate -5 and the given y-coordinate -6, and finally the given 35 with the constant C:

4(-5) - 5(-6) = C, or

-20 + 30 = C. Thus, C = 10, and the equation of the new line is

4x - 5y = 10
