  a = 57.5

  b = 90

  c = 65

Step-by-step explanation:

The measure of an inscribed angle is half that of the arc it intercepts. The angle at 'a' intercepts an arc of 115°, so its measure is (115/2)° = 57.5°

__

The inscribed angle at 'b' is a semicircle, 180°, so the measure of 'b' is (180/2)° = 90°.

__

The arc 'c' is the remainder of a semicircle after 115° have been taken away. Its measure is 180° -115° = 65°.

  (a, b, c) = (57.5, 90, 65)

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.
