If mVQ=(y+7), mQR=(x+11), mRS=(3y),and mST=65,findthevaluesofxandy

The values of x and y are x = 25 and y = 18

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of an arc is equal to the measure of the central angle subtended by it

In circle W

∵ W is the center of the circle

∵ m∠QWS = 90°

∵ ∠QWS is subtended by arc QS

- Use the rule above

∴ m∠QWS = m arc QS

∴ m arc QS = 90°

∵ m arc QS = m arc QR + m arc RS

∵ m arc QR = (x + 11)°

∵ m arc RS = (3y)°

- Add them and equate the answer by 90

∴ (x + 11) + (3y) = 90

- Subtract 11 from both sides

∴ x + 3y = 79 ⇒ (1)

∵ VT passes through W

∴ VT is a diameter in circle W

- Diameter divides the circle into two equal arcs the measure

   of its arc is 180° because the measure of the circle is 360°

∴ m arc VQRST is 180°

∵ m arc QRS = 90°

∵ m arc VQRST = m arc VQ + m arc QRS + m arc ST

- Substitute the measures of arc VQRST and QRS

∴ 180 = m arc VQ + 90 + m arc ST

- Subtract 90 from both sides

∴ 90 = m arc VQ + m arc ST

∵ m arc VQ = (y + 7)°

∵ m arc ST = 65°

∴ 90 = (y + 7) + 65

- Add like terms in the right hand side

∴ 90 = y + 72

- Subtract 72 from both sides

∴ 18 = y

Substitute the value of y in equation (1) to find x

∵ x + 3(18) = 79

∴ x + 54 = 79

- Subtract 54 from both sides

∴ x = 25

The values of x and y are x = 25 and y = 18

the answer is 45 i just did it on oddesy ware

hey there!

if she's saving for six months, let's divide the total number we need for the trip by six, dividing it into the amount that needs to be saved for each month.

500 ÷ 6 =

she needs to save at least this amount each month, so we should use this symbol: ≥

let x be the amount she saves each month.

your final answer is x ≥

hope this !
