finlep [7]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

EK = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Intersecting Chords Formula:  a • b = c • d

BK * KD = EK * KC

4 * 10 = (x+1) * (x-2)

40 = x^2 +x-2x-2

40 = x^2 -x -2

0 = x^2 - x-2-40

0 = x^2 -x -42

Factor

0 = (x-7) (x+6)

Using the zero product property

x-7 = 0   x+6 =0

x=7        x=-6

X is not negative

x=7

EK = x+1

EK = 7+1

EK = 8

Answer:

5.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Since they are similar triangles, we assume the ratio between AM/AN is equal to the ratio between MB/NC.
AM/AN = 6/8 = 3/4
If MB is 4
3/4 = MB/NC = 4/NC
3/4 = 4/NC

3NC = 16
NC = 16/3
16/3 = 5.333333

In the year 1995, there were 1200 students at pine elementary school. In the year 2010 there were 1500 students. Find the rate o
AnnZ [28]

The rate of change from 1995 to 2010 is 20 students per year and the linear function that models the data will be: y=20x-38700

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

In the year 1995, there were 1200 students and in the year 2010, there were 1500 students.

If x represents the year and y represents the number of students, then two points in form of (x,y) will be: (1995, 1200) and (2010, 1500)

So, the rate of change or slope = (change in value of y / change in value of x) =\frac{1500-1200}{2010-1995}= \frac{300}{15}=20

Now, plugging  slope(m) = 20 and first point (x_{1}, y_{1}) =(1995,1200)  into <u>point slope form of linear equation</u> y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1}) , we will get.....

y-1200=20(x-1995)\\ \\ y-1200=20x-39900\\ \\ y= 20x-39900+1200\\ \\ y= 20x-38700
