How do you find the value of x if arc HJK = (10x+50)o

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I got x=39.5 8x-29=10x+50

OpenStudy (nikato):

Not quite. <K = 1/2 (arcHJK)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so it is just 1/2 of (10x+50)?

OpenStudy (nikato):

You have to set up the whole equation 8x -29= 1/2 (10x+50)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

x=18

OpenStudy (nikato):

Correct. You're first equation was almost correct. You just forgot to multiply by 1/2

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh, I get it now. Thank you :)

OpenStudy (nikato):

No problem
