I believe the answer is -13
We know that
<span>When two chords intersect each other inside a circle, the products of their segments are equal
</span>
so
CP*PD=AP*PB
x*y=2*PB-----------> 28=2*PB----------> PB=14
the answer is
PB=14
Answer: 9. n = 2 19/20 10. n = 2 1/12
Step-by-step explanation: 3 2/10-1/4 = n 32/10−1/4 32/10+−1/4 16/5+−1/4 64/20+−5/20 n = 59/20 n = 2 19/20 2 5/6-3/4 = n 17/6-3/4 17/6+-3/4 34/12+-9/12 n = 25/12 n = 2 1/12
To solve the problem posed in the statement we need to know the equivalence between squared foot and squared inches, and that is:
1 square foot = 144 square inches
So Reed uses 8 pieces of glass per 144 squared inches as well.
Now we can use a rule of three, simple and direct proportion to solve the question, it goes like this:
144 squared inches ------> 8 pieces glass
864 squared inches ------> x
x = (864)(8)/144
x = 48
Hence, Reed will use 48 pieces of glass to make a window that is 864 square inches.
