14.) Solve for x if mZHWO = 40", mHo is (x - 2) and
mYD is (x + 6).
x=
D
H
W
Y

x = 38

Step-by-step explanation:

The chord- chord angle HWO is half the sum of the arcs intercepted by the angle and its vertical angle, that is

(x - 2 + x + 6) = 40 ( multiply both sides by 2 to clear the fraction )

2x + 4 = 80 ( subtract 4 from both sides )

2x = 76 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 38

answer: the price of one pound cabbage = $ 0.8

the point (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds cabbage is $ 8

step-by-step explanation:

since, here is a proportional relation between the number of pounds of cabbage (x) and the price in dollars (y).

therefore, we can write,

⇒ y = k x

where k is the constant of proportionality.

now, point (5,4) is in the line.

thus, it will satisfies the above equation of line.

⇒ 4 = 5 k

⇒ k = 0.8

thus, the equation of the line is,

y = 0.8 x

a) for x = 1,

y = 0.8

therefore, the cost of one pound of cabbage is 0.8 dollars.

b) in the below graph (10,8) represents that the cost of 10 pounds of cabbage is 8 dollars.
