Answer:

$m\angle BAD=73^o$

Step-by-step explanation:

The picture of the question in the attached figure

step 1

Find the value of x

Let

O ----> the center of the circle

we know that

Triangle BOC≅Triangle COD

$m\angle BOC=arc\ BC$ ----> by central angle

$m\angle COD=arc\ CD$ ----> by central angle

$m\angle BOC=m\angle COD$

therefore

$arc\ BC=arc\ CD$

substitute the given values

$(9x-53)^o=(2x+45)^o$

solve for x

$9x-2x=45+53\\7x=98\\x=14$

step 2

Find the measure of angle BAD

we know that

The inscribed angle is half that of the arc it comprises.

$m\angle BAD=\frac{1}{2} [arc\ BC+arc\ CD]$

$arc\ BC=9(14)-53=73^o$

$arc\ CD=2(14)+45=73^o$

substitute

$m\angle BAD=\frac{1}{2} [73^o+73^o]=73^o$

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

Bianca's height = 42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Bianca height.

Given:

Meredith height = 60 inches

We need to find the Bianca height.

Solution:

From the given statement the Meredith's height is $\frac{2}{3}$ of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.

Meredith's height = $\frac{2}{3}(Bianca\ height)+32$

Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.

$60=\frac{2}{3}x+32$

Now we solve the above equation for x.

$\frac{2}{3}x=60-32$

$\frac{2}{3}x=28$

By cross multiplication.

$x=\frac{3\times 28}{2}$

28 divided by 2.

$x= 3\times 14$

$x=42\ in$

Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.

Dominik [7]

If you add $15 + $27 because that's how much it costs for each student, you get $42. Then you divide $714 by $42, you get 17 and that's how many students are in the class this month.

The graph of f(x) = x6 – 2x4 – 5x2 + 6 is shown below.

DochEvi [55]

Answer:

There are two rational roots for f(x)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given a function

$f(x) = x^6-2x^4-5x^2+6$

To find the number of rational roots for f(x).

Let us use remainder theorem that when

f(a) =0, (x-a) is a factor of f(x) or x=a is one solution.

Substitute 1 for x

f(1) = 1-2-5+6=0

Hence x=1 is one solution.

Let us try x=-1

f(-1) = 1-2-5+6 =0

So x =-1 is also a solution and x+1 is a factor

We can write f(x) by trial and error as

$f(x) = (x-1)(x+1)(x^2-3)$

We find that $f(x) (x^2-3)$ factor gives two irrational solutions as

±√3.

Hence number of rational roots are 2.

A random draw is being designed for 210 participants. A single winner is to be chosen, and all the participants must have an equ

Over [174]

Answer: The correct number of balls is (b) 4.

Step-by-step explanation: Given that a single winner is to be chosen in a random draw designed for 210 participants. Also, there is an equal probability of winning for each participant.

We are using 10 balls, numbered through 0 to 9. We are to find the number of balls which needs to be picked up, regardless of order, so that each of the 210 participants can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Let 'r' represents the number of balls to be picked up.

Since we are choosing from 10 balls, so we must have

$^{10}C_r=210.$

The value of 'r' can be any one of 0, 1, 2, . . , 10.

Now,

if r = 1, then

$^{10}C_1=\dfrac{10!}{1!(10-1)!}=\dfrac{10!}{1!9!}=\dfrac{10\times 9!}{1\times 9!}=10$

If r = 2, then

$^{10}C_2=\dfrac{10!}{2!(10-2)!}=\dfrac{10!}{2!8!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8!}{2\times 1\times 8!}=45$

If r = 3, then

$^{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\dfrac{10!}{3!7!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times 7!}{3\times 2\times 1\times 7!}=120$

If r = 4, then

$^{10}C_4=\dfrac{10!}{4!(10-4)!}=\dfrac{10!}{4!6!}=\dfrac{10\times 9\times 8\times\times 7\times 6!}{4\times 3\times 2\times 1\times 6!}=210.$

Therefore, we need to pick 4 balls so that each participant can be assigned a unique set of numbers.

Thus, (b) is the correct option.
