  z = 20

  m∠A = 70°

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 0: read and understand the question. Identify the given information and the information requested.

Step 1: consult your knowledge of inscribed quadrilaterals to determine that opposite angles are supplementary.

Step 2: identify angles A and C as being marked with expressions in z.

Step 3: use those expressions and the relation in Step 1 to write an equation.

  A + C = 180°

  (4z -10)° +(10 +5z)°= 180°

Step 4: solve for z.

  9z = 180 . . . . simplify, divide by °

  z = 20 . . . . . . divide by 9

Step 5: use the relation between z and the measure of angle A to answer the question.

  m∠A = (4z -10)° = (4·20 -10)°

  m∠A = 70°

Step 6: check your answer. This can be done by making sure that angle C is supplementary to angle A.

  C = (10 +5z)° = (10 +5·10)° = 110° = 180° -70° ∴ answer checks OK

true

step-by-step explanation:

12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 7 hours.

4: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m. is a total of 3 hours.

this means that from 4: 00 p.m to 7: 00 p.m. this represents 3/7 of what was lost from 12: 00 p.m. to 7: 00 p.m.

after knowing this, after doing 11,600 - 6,800 = 4,800

4,800 represents 3/7 of what was lost for 7 hours.

we then divide 4,800 by 3 which gets 1,600.

because we know that 1,600 represents 1/7 of how much water was lost, we just have to multiply by 7, which gets 11,200.   after adding 11,200 to how much water was left at 7: 00 p.m. which was 6,800. 11,200 + 6,800 = 18,000

this means that the pool originally had 18,000 gallons in the pool.

you can also check your work by doing 18,000 - 4(1600), which becomes           1800 - 6400 which gets you 11,600.
