Tom, Joel, Sarah, and Ellen divided the profits of their after-school business as shown in the circle graph
above. If Tom's share of the profits was $492, what was Ellen's share?
$246
$615
$738
$820

70

step-by-step explanation:

2*5=10

4*15=60

60+10=

70

-2x + 7 = 7

subtract 7 from both sides.

-2x = 0

divide both sides by -2.

x = 0

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.
