Angles related to a circle. Solve for x.

natka813 [3]

The value of x from the given circle is 12

<h3>Circle theorem</h3>

Angle at the vertex of the circle is half the angle at its intercepted arc.

From the given circle;

The measure of <DEF = 80/2 = 4x -8

Equate both angles

4x - 8 = 80/2

Add 8 to both sides

4x - 8 + 8 = 40 + 8

4x = 48

x =12

Hence the value of x from the given circle is 12

John took all his money from his savings account. He spent $110 on a radio and 4/11 of what was left on presents for his friend

svp [43]

Answer:

$1210

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be total amount

First John spent $110 on a radio and 4/11 of what was left on presents for his friends so he was left with

$\frac{7}{11}(x-110)=\frac{7}{11}x-70$

Then he put 2/5 of his remaining money into a checking account

$\frac{3}{5}\left(\frac{7}{11}x-70\right)$

Rest he donated to charity

$420=\frac{3}{5}\left(\frac{7}{11}x-70\right)\\\Rightarrow \left(\frac{7}{11}x-70\right)=\frac{2100}{3}\\\Rightarrow \frac{7}{11}x-70=700\\\Rightarrow \frac{7}{11}x=770\\\Rightarrow x=1210$

Hence total amount of money John originally had was $1210
