Answer:

<h2>A.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

t^{2}+14t+85

Where the constant term is 85.

A constant term refers to an initial condition of the problem. In this case, we are talking about time related to money earned in dollars. So, in this case, 85 refers to total money earned in 2008, because that's the initial year of the period.

So, basically, the constant term refers that the company earned 85 billion dollars in 2008, which is the meaning of the initial condition of this problem.

Therefore, the right answer is A.

Isosceles △ABC (AC=BC) is inscribed in the circle k(O). Prove that the tangent to the circle at point C is parallel to AB .
timofeeve [1]

Explanation:

Let M be the midpoint of AB. Then CM is the perpendicular bisector of AB. As such, center O is on CM, and OC is a radius (and CM). The tangent is perpendicular to that radius (and CM), so is parallel to AB, which is also perpendicular to CM.

If you need to go any further, you can show that triangles CMA and CMB are congruent, so (linear) angles CMA and CMB are congruent, hence both 90°.

adoni [48]

Solution:

x y ║ z w→→Given

Also, x z is a transversal, that intercepts x y and z w.

So, ∠ x z w=∠z x y→→Alternate interior angles as, x y ║ z w.

Also, v is point of intersection of x z and y w.

∠ x v y ≅ ∠ z v w→→[ Vertically opposite angles]

So,→→ Δ x y v ~ Δ z w v⇒⇒[Angle-Angle Similarity]

a group of 12 adults and 26 children go to a theme park . The total costs of the tickets was £1804.80. An adults ticket costs 51
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

The cost of a ticket for a child is £45.6

Step-by-step explanation:

- A group of 12 adults and 26 children go to a theme park

- The total costs of the tickets was £1804.8

- An adults ticket costs £51.6

- We need to find the cost of a ticket for a child

- Assume that the price of a ticket for a child is £x

∵ The group has 26 children

∴ The cost of children tickets = 26 × (x)

∵ The group has 12 adults

∵ The cost of the adult ticket = £51.6

∴ The cost of adult tickets = 12 × 51.6

∵ The total cost of tickets = 26 × (x) + 12 × 51.6

∴ The total cost of tickets = 26 x + 619.2

∵ The total costs of the tickets was £1804.8

- Equate the two expressions of the total cost

∴ 26 x + 619.2 = 1804.8

- Subtract 619.2 from both sides

∴ 26 x = 1185.6

- Divide both sides by 26

∴ x = 45.6

* The cost of a ticket for a child is £45.6

If 2x + 5 = 8x, then 12x = ?
satela [25.4K]
X= 10

~because~

2x+5=8x, subtract 2x from both sides:

5=6x, divide 6 on both sides:

x=5/6, then rewrite the equation:

12(5/6)

x=10
