Step-by-step explanation:

for the relationship of lengths of internal chords the product of both segments of a chord is equal for all intersecting chords.

in our case

(x+8)×8 = 7×16 = 112

8x + 64 = 112

8x = 48

x = 6

so, D-F = x + 8 = 6 + 8 = 14

so, C is correct

The length of a rectangle is twice the width. Find the width if the perimeter is 60 centimeters. Define a variable, write an equ

-Dominant- [34]

width = w

length = 2w

perimeter = 2w + 2 l

perimeter = 2w +2(2w)

60 = 2w + 4w

60= 6w

60=6w

w = 60/6 = 10

length = 10x2 = 20

10+10+20+20 = 60

Last month a museum received €21000 in donations.After taking off the cost of monthly bills,,the museum spent the remaining mone

Rainbow [258]

Answer:

$13,500.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent money spent on monthly bills.

We have been given that last month a museum received €21000 in donations. The ratio of bills to donations was 5:14.

We will use proportions to solve our given problem.

$\frac{\text{Bills}}{\text{Donations}}=\frac{5}{14}$

$\frac{x}{21000}=\frac{5}{14}$

$\frac{x}{21000}*21000=\frac{5}{14}*21000$

$x=5*1500$

$x=7500$

Now, we will subtract $7500 from donations to find the amount spent on new exhibitions as:

$\$21,000-\$7500=\$13,500$

Therefore, they spent $13,500 on new exhibitions.

Y=1/3x+11/15 find x if y=6

Svetlanka [38]

Step-by-step explanation:

plug in y

6=1/3x+11/15

multiply both sides by 15 to get rid of the fraction

90 = 5x +11

move terms to make them like terms

-5x =11- 90

-5x = -79

divide both sides by -5

evaluate for x
