Answer:
Diameter = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the diameter be represented as x.
Based on the secant-tangent theorem, the following equation representing the relationship between the segments would be:
(16 + x)(16) = 20²
256 + 16x = 400
Subtract 256 from each side
16x = 400 - 256
16x = 144
Divide both sides by 16
x = 144/16
x = 9
Diameter = 9
Answer:
D.) (14, 0); the time it takes for the bird to reach the ground
Step-by-step explanation:
The attached graph shows a plot of the table values and the two offered solution options.
The dependent variable in this scenario is the bird's height above the ground. When that is zero, the bird is on the ground. This fact makes choices B and C seem ridiculous.
We note from the table and graph that the bird is on a path that decreases in height by 3 feet every 2 seconds. If the bird continues that rate of descent, it will reach the ground after 14 seconds.
That is, its (time, height) pair will be (14, 0), matching choice D.
_____
Choosing any answer to this question requires making assumptions that are inconsistent with real-world bird behavior. At least, the problem statement should say what assumptions are applicable.
