Answer:
9.12 + 9.12 = 18.24 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
Diameter = 23 inches (given)
Radius = 11.5 inches
2 Chords of length = 14 inches ( You didn't specify if the 14 inches is for both chords or for a single cord. I'll assume it's for two cords 14 and 14inches apart.
To clearly solve this, we'll make some mild assumptions.
Let the perpendicular distance of the chords from the center of the circle to represented as " x and y"
Therefore:
x^2 + 7^2 = 11.5 ^ 2
x^2 + 49 = 132.25
x^2 = 132.25 - 49
x^2 = 83.25
x = √ 83.25
x = 9.12 inches
Since the cords have thesame length (Assumed from the way the question was structured, the distance would still be thesame)
y^2 + 7^2 = 11.5 ^ 2
y^2 + 49 = 132.25
y^2 = 132.25 - 49
y^2 = 83.25
y = √ 83.25
y = 9.12 inches
Therefore, the distance will be :
9.12 + 9.12 = 18.24 inches

Answer:
8 Hours
Step-by-step explanation:
32÷4=8
It takes 4 machines to do something in 32 hours. If you had 4 times more machines it would be 4 times faster.
I hope this helps!
The concept of radicals and radical exponents is tricky at first, but makes sense when we look into the logic behind it.
When we write a radical in exponential form, like writing √x as x^(1/2), we are simply putting the power of the radical in the denominator (bottom number) of the exponent, and the numerator is the power we raise the exponent to, or the power that would be inside the radical.
In our example, √x is really ²√(x¹), or the square root of x to the first power. For this reason, we write it as x^(1/2).
Let's say we wanted to write the cubed root of x squared, in exponential form.
In radical form, it would look like this:
³√(x²) . This means we square x, and then take the cubed root.
In exponential form, remember that we take the power of the radical (3), and make that the denominator of the exponent, and keep the numerator as the power that x is raised to (2).
Therefore, it would be x^(2/3), or x to the 2 thirds power.
Just like when multiplying by a fraction, you multiply by the numerator and divide by the denominator, in exponential form, you raise your base number to the power of the numerator, and take the root of the denominator.
