The value of x in the following diagram in which the length of Q to line EF is 3x+1 and the length of Q from the line HG is x+8, is 3.5 units.

<h3>What is the property of perpendicular on chord in circle?</h3>

The line which is drawn from the center of the circle perpendicular to the chord in the circle bisect the chord into two equal shape.

In the given, diagram the length of Q to line EF is 3x+1 and the length of Q from the line HG is x+8.

These both the lines are equal in length as both are drawn from the center of the circle and has a perpendicular bisector for the 15 units length chord in the circle. Thus,

$3x+1=x+8\\3x-x=8-1\\2x=7\\x=\dfrac{7}{2}\\x=3.5$

Thus, the value of x in the following diagram in which the length of Q to line EF is 3x+1 and the length of Q from the line HG is x+8, is 3.5 units.

Step-by-step explanation:

As

The graph of the function passes through the point (2,1), and

y increases by 4 when x increases by 1.

so

6 17

and so on

From the table:

$\mathrm{Slope\:between\:two\:points}:\quad \mathrm{Slope}=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$\left(x_1,\:y_1\right)=\left(2,\:1\right),\:\left(x_2,\:y_2\right)=\left(3,\:5\right)$

$m=\frac{5-1}{3-2}$

$m=4$

As the slope-intercept form of the line is

$y=mx+b$

putting m=4 and any point, let say (2, 1) to find y-intercept 'b'.

$1=\left(4\right)2+b$

$8+b=1$

$8+b-8=1-8$

$b=-7$

So putting $b=-7$ and $m=4$ in the slope-intercept form of the line

$y=\left(4\right)x+\left(-7\right)$

$y=4x-7$

Therefore, the equation for the linear function will be:

$y=4x-7$

Answer:

E(t) = 5t +672 ($)

Step-by-step explanation: INCOMPLETE QUESTION

FROM GOOGLE

she earns 12 $ per hour as tutor and 7 $ per hour as waitress, this month she worked a combined of 96 hours at her two jobs

Let be t the numbers of hours Leila works as tutor this month

Answer:

If Leila worked t hours as tutor then, she worked (96 - t) hours as waitress

E(t) = 12 * t + 7 * (96-t)

E(t) = 12t + 672 - 7t

E(t) = 5t +672 ($)

Madam Siti bought the same lengths of red and yellow ribbons. After she used 836 cm of the red ribbon, the length of the yellow

Yuliya22 [10]

Answer: 1045 cm of red ribbon and 1045 cm of yellow ribbon

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Let R represent the amount red ribbon and Y represent the amouont of yellow ribbon.

bought the same lengths of red and yellow: R = Y

after used 286 of red, yellow is 5 times the remaining red; 5(R - 836) = Y

Use substitution method to solve:

5(R - 836) = R

5R - 4180 = R <em>distributed 5 on the left side</em>

4R - 4180 = 0 <em>subtracted R from both sides</em>

4R = 4180 <em>added 4180 to both sides</em>

R = 1045 <em>divided both sides by 4</em>
