Draw a number line to represent the inequality. y < 23

Number line is attached

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given inequality as

y is less than 23

so, we take all possible values that is less than 23

so, we can write interval as

For

as

now, we can draw a number line and locate y=23

and then shade left side of 23 region

that would be solution

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.
