Answer:

<h2>A. Divide the arc's degree measure by 360°, then multiply by the circumference of the circle.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The first choice describes the right way to find the length of an arc in a circle.

The length of an arc is defined as

$L=2\pi r (\frac{\theta}{360\°} )$

Where $2\pi r$ represents the circumference of the circle and $\theta$ represents the arc's degree measure.

So, as you can observe through this formula, we need to divide the arc's degree measure by 360°, and then multiply this result with the circumference of the circle, that's the right way based on the definition of arc length.

Therefore, the right answer is A.

Mult. all terms by 2 to remove the fractions:

2y - 4 > x - 2

Add 4 to both sides: 2y > x + 2

Div. both sides by 2: y > (1/2)x + 1 (answer)</span>

Sarah spends of her monthly take-home pay on rent, food, and clothing. If she earns $1,830 in take-home pay each month, how much

frosja888 [35]

Sarah spendings

We have that Sarah spends 2/3 of $1,830 in rent food and clothing

In order to find the money she spends, we just have to divide $1,830 in 3 and multiply the result by 2:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{1830}{3}=610 \\ 610\cdot2=1220 \end{gathered}$ <h2>Answer - D. $1,220</h2>

Answer:

A) 40

B) length = 4.275 km; not quite true. See below for explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Your calculator can tell you the ratio ...

(national pennies)/(local pennies) = (8×10⁶)/(2×10⁵)

= (8/2)×10⁶⁻⁵ = 4×10¹ = 40

The national drive collected 40 times as many pennies as the Valley Stream Central goal.

B) Multiplying the number of pennies by the diameter of each will tell the length of the line of pennies. That length can be compared to the 5 km distance to determine if the reporter's statement is true. (It is <em>not</em> true.)

length of string = (length of penny) × (number of pennies)

= (19×10⁻⁶ km) × (2.25×10⁵) = 42.75×10⁻¹ km = 4.275 km

The length of the pennies laid side-to-side is less than 5.0 km. The reporter's statement is not true.
