Eric plays basketball and volleyball for a total of 95 minutes every day. He plays basketball 25 minutes more than he plays volleyball. Part A: Write a pair of linear equations to show the relationship between the number of minutes Eric plays basketball (x) and the number of minutes he plays volleyball (y) every day. (5 points)

Part B: How much time does Eric spend playing volleyball every day? (3 points)

Part C: Is it possible for Eric to have spent 35 minutes playing basketball every day? Explain your reasoning. (2 points)

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.

answer: 8d

step-by-step explanation:

45+5= 50+5=55+5=60

explanation:

previous steps have made pa≅ pb ≅ st ≅ su. setting the compass width to ab allows you to make tu the same length. then δstu ≅ δpab by the sss congruence postulate, and ∠p ≅ ∠s by the reason cpctc.
