Diana is constructing a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle. She begins by drawing a line and labeling a point on the line as

point A. She uses her compass to construct a circle with point A as the center, labeling the points where the circle intersects the line as points B and C. Without changing the compass opening, she constructs a circle with point B as the center and then with point C as the center. What step should be her next step? Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. Using this compass width, put the compass point on A and draw another circle. Put the point of the compass on point B and the pencil point on point C. With the compass point still on B, draw two arcs that intersects the circle with center A. Draw and label the points where the circles with centers A and B intersect and where the circles with centers A and C intersect. Use a straightedge to join the four points where the circles intersect.

Answer:

Draw and label the points where the circles with centers A and B intersect and where the circles with centers A and C intersect.

Step-by-step explanation:

Those four points of intersection, together with the points B and C are the 6 vertices of the hexagon. Diana can use her straightedge to join them to finish her inscribed hexagon.

Suppose y varies directly with x. If y = –4 when x = 8, what is the equation of direct variation? Complete the steps to write th
Sauron [17]

Answer:

y = -1/2 x

Step-by-step explanation:

Follow the directions "Complete the steps to write the equation of direct variation. Start with the equation of direct variation y = kx. Substitute in the given values for x and y to get . Solve for k to get . Write the direct variation equation with the value found for k."

y = kx substitute y = -4 and x = 8.

-4 = k*8

-4/8 = k

-1/2 = k

So the equation is y = -1/2(x).

A number, y, is equal to twice the sum of a smaller number and 3. The larger number is also equal to 5 more than 3 times the sma
xenn [34]

Answer:

2 x minus y = negative 6 and 3 x minus y = negative 5

Step-by-step explanation:

y = 2(x+3) = 2x + 6 or 2x - y = -6

y = 5 + 3x or 3x - y = -5

Alenkasestr [34]
Draw the picture and label the 
  width = w 
 The length of the monitor is six times the quantity of five less than half its width:
 length = 6(w/2-5)
 length = 3w-30
 Area = (length)*(width)
 384=(3w-30)*(w)
 384=3w^2-30w
 Answer:
 the dimensions of the monitor in terms of its width is: 
 384=3w^2-30w

In a race, Car #1 went an average of 165 miles per hour for x hours before dropping out. Car #2 went an average of 175 miles per
Akimi4 [234]
When you think about it. It's actually quite easy.
The number are the amount of miles, and the variables are the amount of hours. So we would just have to multiply them. So, by putting the number together we would be able to multiply them once we have the numbers for the variables. Since we dont have them, we can just make the inequality. It says that car 1 traveled at LEAST that of car 2. Showing that car 1 may have traveled farther. SOOOOO........ the inequality should look like this:

165x <span>≥ 175y</span>
